Keep mission-critical applications running across any infrastructure
Distributed architecture
Build on a single, logical, multi-node capable database that handles high read and write loads—no sharding or manual upkeep required.
Data domiciling
Control locality at the database, table, and row level to achieve your read-write latency goals and determine where sensitive data resides.
Multi-region, multi-cloud
Run any combination of cloud(s) and/or on-prem infrastructure. Easily transfer app & data between environments to address regulations and avoid vendor lock-in.
Multi-active availability
Survive unintended failures without suffering loss of availability, data consistency, or data loss.
No downtime for maintenance
Perform schema changes without downtime. Rolling upgrades let you take nodes offline one at a time without disrupting service.
SQL & PostgreSQL compatible
Use standard SQL to query, analyze, and optimize your workloads. PostgreSQL compatibility allows you to migrate existing apps without rewriting code.
Where resilience matters most, legacy databases fall short.
Most databases weren’t built for how modern teams move. Failovers break, scaling pushes back, and schema changes cause downtime.
CockroachDB fixes that at the core. With multi-active availability, geo-partitioning, and online schema changes, you get global scale, built-in resilience, and freedom to evolve—without the usual breakage.
