CockroachDB is a distributed SQL database built on a transactional and strongly-consistent key-value store. It scales horizontally; survives disk, machine, rack, and even datacenter failures with minimal latency disruption and no manual intervention; supports strongly-consistent ACID transactions; and provides a familiar SQL API for structuring, manipulating, and querying data. CockroachDB is wire-compatible with PostgreSQL.
CockroachDB has released its 23.2 iteration containing new features designed to tempt mainframe and other legacy database users to shift workloads to its distributed cloud-based system.
In the new release, the database-as-a-service company, whose customers include Comcast, audio company Bose, and cosmetics firm Lush, said it had rebuilt stored procedures to be significantly more powerful.
