CockroachDB is a cloud-native SQL database for building global, scalable cloud services that survive disasters.
/statusIcon.svg)
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.
For more details, see our FAQ or architecture document.
Here?s a quick explainer video:
CockroachDB is production-ready. See our Roadmap for a list of features planned or in development.
For guidance on installation, development, deployment, and administration, see our User Documentation.
Start a local cluster and talk to it via the built-in SQL client.
Use a PostgreSQL-compatible driver or ORM to build an app with CockroachDB.
Explore core features, such as data replication, automatic rebalancing, and fault tolerance and recovery.
CockroachDB supports the PostgreSQL wire protocol, so you can use any available PostgreSQL client drivers to connect from various languages.
For recommended drivers that we've tested, see Install Client Drivers.
For tutorials using these drivers, as well as supported ORMs, see Build an App with CockroachDB.
