About Cockroachdb
CockroachDB was created in 2014 to address the need for a highly available, strongly consistent distributed SQL database that could scale horizontally. It was developed to combine the familiarity of SQL with the resilience and scalability typically found in NoSQL databases, aiming to provide a robust solution for cloud-native applications.
Strengths of CockroachDB include horizontal scalability, strong consistency, high availability, and resilience to node failures. Weaknesses involve complexity in setup and management, and potential performance overhead compared to traditional databases. Competitors include Google Spanner, Amazon Aurora, and YugabyteDB.
