Introducing WAL Failover

With CockroachDB release 24.3 we are introducing write-ahead log (WAL) failover, a solution for transient disk stalls commonly seen in cloud storage. During a disk stall, the underlying storage is not available, adding application latency. While we can’t prevent disk stalls, WAL failover helps minimize their impact on CockroachDB instances.

Introducing Logical Data Replication in CockroachDB

We are excited to introduce Logical Data Replication (LDR) in Preview in the 24.3 release of CockroachDB. LDR enables data replication between CockroachDB clusters and enables both clusters to actively receive traffic during replication.

2DC Support with Cross-Cluster Replication

We have invested in building two cross-cluster replication tools: physical cluster replication (PCR; Generally Available in 24.1) and logical data replication (LDR; Preview in 24.3). These cross-cluster replication tools will enable you to achieve regional resiliency, low single-region write latency, and survive entire cluster outages when deploying your applications on CockroachDB.

Inventory management on Black Friday: Challenges and solutions

Black Friday and Cyber Monday are like the Superbowl for retailers. Instead of point spreads, though, e-commerce companies are betting on peak sales numbers. But while the deluge of deals evokes dreams of dollars for CEOs, the surging site traffic can be more of a nightmare for CTOs. The onslaught of shoppers puts huge amounts of stress on their application architecture. In this scenario, even a minor problem with inventory management can cause major consequences.

How CockroachDB Implements UDFs and SPs

User-defined functions (UDFs) and stored procedures (SPs) allow users to define a set of queries that can be executed at the database by providing only the function or procedure name and any relevant parameters. They provide building blocks for users to compose complex queries, which makes applications less error prone since users don’t need to repeatedly provide the complex query. Another benefit of UDFs/SPs is that they enable better performance by moving more computation closer to the data. There are fewer round trips between the application and database to get the results the user wants.
