The data landscape has fundamentally shifted: Modern applications demand zero-downtime architectures, while regulatory frameworks expect increasingly precise data locality and residency controls. Meanwhile, AI workloads require continuous access to fresh, consistent data that powers applications at scale.

The raw performance of a database starts to matter a whole lot less if that database is down: If you’re fast and you’re down, you’re still down. To be clear, raw performance still matters, but traditional benchmarks don’t measure true customer experience when conditions are less than ideal.

AI systems, from LLM pipelines to generative image models, produce staggering volumes of unstructured data. But it's not the raw objects that cause operational headaches – it's the metadata: versions, references, lifecycles, and access policies. Without metadata management tools built into the database layer, object storage at scale quickly becomes unmanageable.

India's technology ecosystem is scaling faster than ever, with remarkable momentum. The country's economy grew at a faster-than-expected 7.8% annual rate in the quarter ending June 2025. Meanwhile, digital commerce alone is projected to quadruple from $160 billion in 2025 to $640 billion by 2035 powered by internet penetration, smartphone adoption, and ambitious government initiatives.

Picture this: Your team has successfully containerized applications, adopted microservices, and migrated to the cloud. Yet somehow, deployments still take hours, scaling remains unpredictable, and that big AI initiative keeps hitting data bottlenecks.

Unlike traditional relational databases, CockroachDB's distributed architecture requires new approaches to deployment topologies, schema design, performance tuning, monitoring, and operational best practices. CockroachDB delivers global scale, zero-downtime operations, and strong consistency. However, teams often hit a roadblock: the learning curve.

Every AI application – whether it's an LLM-powered chatbot, an API platform, or a generative service – depends on a secure, always-on identity layer. IAM (identity access management) determines who gets access, what they can do, and how long their session lasts. When the database behind IAM fails, so does the AI experience.
