Data Partitioning by Location - Geo-Partitioning

Assign data a location

Tie data to locations so you can reduce global latencies and meet your customer expectations for performance

CockroachDB decreases latency by storing data close to your customers, even when they’re traveling

Define the physical location where every row is stored, to meet many global privacy and compliance measures

Use row-level controls to keep data close to users for low-latency reads and writes and regulatory compliance

Automatically detect pockets of activity and move data closer to where it's needed, without operator intervention

Use “replication zones” to control the number and location of specific sets of data - from cluster-wide to row-level

CockroachDB’s Cost-Based Optimizer serves low-latency, consistent, and current reads from the closest data
