How we built easy row-level data homing in CockroachDB with REGIONAL BY ROW

In this blog post, we’ll explore the motivations behind the REGIONAL BY ROW abstraction, take a deeper dive into the abstraction itself, and look behind the scenes to understand how REGIONAL BY ROW works under the covers. We also have a hands-on demo for you to try out at the end, so you can play around with a toy multi-region cluster yourself!

The creation of a truly new category within tech is a rare moment. The emergence of a significant new category that will transform the tech landscape is the result of clear vision and underlying shifts in the market. Given that innovation is a constant in tech, however, how do we identify when an emerging technology will have genuine long-term impact? How do we know there is a truly new “category”? There are three characteristics of any emerging category: Adoption and momentum: There is a building group of companies and individuals receiving and creating new value from the “new” approach. A collection of interests: There is an emerging set of best practices and general curiosity from individuals and companies around the new tech Market recognition: People spend money on it, and those that analyze industries start to track and study the new technology.
