Why Squarespace adopted CockroachDB for better global performance at scale

Squarespace is famous for its design-focused, all-in-one approach to building professional websites without needing to code. With nearly 5 million users worldwide generating terabytes of data, their platform needs to be performant at global scale and deliver always-on availability. To allow their engineers to focus on building new features instead of rearchitecting the database, Squarespace recently made the decision to migrate several use cases off of PostgreSQL to CockroachDB. Discover why Squarespace selected CockroachDB to future-proof its platform.
