Perfect Distributed SQL DB for ACID consistent transactions requirement

  • December 27, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
There are multiple benefits of using CockroachDB, however, some of the best features which I like the most are: Ideal for ACID consistent transaction requirement, create multiple data copies across multiple nodes to provide the highest availability in case some other node goes down or fails. Robust SQL Interface, don't need to learn a new dialect for administering data. You can easily scale it and couple it as per your application necessities without much hectic as it balances data automatically as more nodes are added. Operational Simplicity is another great benefit of using CockroachDB. Due to which a cluster can easily be started using a few commands along with data replication to multiple regions. Focus on taking advantage of cloud scale and developed primarily for cloud-based applications making it perfect for modern-day requirements.
What do you dislike about the product?
Though it supports most of the Postgres SQL dialect, still it lacks support for some very useful Postgres queries which is a major drawback. Moreover, as the complexity increases it can lead to difficulty in large-scale data querying and can cause frequent crashes. Due to the major focus encompassing strong consistency & availability it results in multiple data replication. Overall the performance becomes considerably slow which can be a major drawback depending on the application requirements and architecture.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CockroachDB ensures the highest data availability which is the most crucial requirement for some use-cases. It creates multiple data replications across multiple regions, so that system data remains available irrespective of any disaster/ node failure. Moreover, it presents a very easy mechanism to scale nodes and simply engage with the existing architecture.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Excellent choice for applications requirement focusing around maximum availability and strongly consistent ACID transactions.

Just Like Cockroach its hard to kill.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like it auto replicating which makes it hard to kill.
We are using this where high traffic is going on , so if one node crash we are still operational.
And it's SQL is just like postgreDB.
It can be used on heavy traffic project.
It's Auto replication features provide high abilities.
What do you dislike about the product?
Few features like concat is not available for community.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
CockroachDB is helping us on high availability.
High amount of data can be handled.

Feature rich, has great online tutorials and Cockroach University.

Best documentation from CockroachDB helps adoption in a faster manner and DB works exceedingly better than expected. Postgres compatibility is really done in such a great manner that migrating from Postgres to CockroachDB was pretty easy than expected.

None as of now. My application needs do not get me into a state where I feel like i dislike to not have any needed feature in CockroachDB.

My application was initially developed with Postgres and we decided to shift to CockroachDB for its Automated scaling, failover and repair feature and its compatibility with postgres so that our migration would be easier. It exactly solved our needs.

Reliable and works well. Would definitely recommend others to consider CockroachDB usage.

What do you like best about the product?
The initial setup, how straight forward it is to get started with the globally distributed data store. Beats everything I have tried so far from Oracle to Cassandra DB!

Missing capabilities to create SQL functions. They a very handy to manage complex relationships or to manipulate large data sets - instead of having to pull them in the application layer.

Basic Cockroach DB usage to create a scalable DB in a few minutes

  • July 18, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The most helpful is how easy you can setup a cockroach DB with a few steps. Also their support can be absolutely helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
An upside is that some of their features are only in enterprise edition.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Strongly-consistent ACID transactions is a big feature for a distributed SQL, such as cockroach DB. You also do not need to care about how much you may need to scale your app in the future. The DB can handle this for sure
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The benefits are many. Try to use it and you'll probably earn from it.
