Rightmove’s Database Migration Story: A RoachFest Highlight
Andrew Tate, Rightmove’s Head of Technology Operations, hit the stage and the crowd with some impressive statistics, setting the scene for why Rightmove needed a solid database solution. With 34 million searches per day, 1.3 billion minutes spent on their site per month, and over 1 petabyte of data in total – that’s 10^15 bytes of data – Rightmove is the go-to site for UK renters and buyers.

Evolving our self-hosted offering and license model
In the past decade, we’ve helped our customers push the envelope to lead in their respective markets, with data architectures that can seamlessly survive node outages, datacenter outages, regional cloud outages, and even the unprecedented ability to turn off a cloud vendor entirely with complete business continuity. We are agnostic to public vs private cloud, allowing zero-downtime portability, and public / private hybrid deployments. All while leaving the door open to the future repatriation of data – after all, the only guarantee is that business requirements will continue to evolve in hard-to-predict ways. Our ability to meet these and other challenges is the number one reason why CockroachDB has become the trusted global database for running the mission-critical workloads of the world’s most important businesses.
