What's new in 25.2

We are introducing vector indexing into public preview. In this exciting new capability, we have carefully considered the underlying distributed SQL environment to invent a new distributed indexing protocol that updates quickly, has no single point of failure, and maintains recall rates over time.

We are also introducing an enhanced change data capture (CDC) envelope that’s akin to Debezium, enabling richer integration into your enterprise applications.

What you'll learn:

• Logical Data Replication and our disaster recovery tools

• Row level security and its relevance to creating multitenant applications

• Vector indexing and how CockroachDB can be used in your GenAI applications

• Our new, enhanced Debezium-esque message format for CDC
