Why leading enterprises choose CockroachDB
Lower cost of ownership
Say goodbye to costly upcharges and add-ons. CockroachDB can reduce application and ops overhead by up to 90% through automation.
Simplified operations
CockroachDB offers native scaling without manual sharding, freeing up engineering hours for more productive tasks. And, no-downtime schema updates and software upgrades means less planned application downtime.
Cloud flexibility
Stay agile and avoid vendor lock-in. Run CockroachDB on AWS, Azure, or GCP, in your own data center, or in a hybrid configuration.
*For example, version 1 of your app supports schema A, and you want to introduce schema B. First you release app version 2 that is able to work with both schemas A and B. Then with version 3 you update the schema to B. Last you deprecate support for schema A in version 4. This is one of the reasons NoSQL was invented.
Architected for mission-critical transactional use cases
Relational databases are founded in relational algebra and deliver a highly efficient store that enforces data integrity in the database as opposed to in code.
