CockroachDB

CockroachDB is a scalable, survivable, strongly-consistent SQL database.

TeamCity CI GoDoc Project Status Gitter

What is CockroachDB?

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 and original design document.

Status

CockroachDB is currently in beta. See our 1.0 Roadmap and Issues for a list of features planned or in development.

Docs

For guidance on installation, development, deployment, and administration, see our User Documentation.

Quickstart

  1. Install CockroachDB.

  2. Start a local cluster and talk to it via the built-in SQL client.

  3. Secure the cluster with TLS encryption.

  4. Learn more about CockroachDB SQL.

  5. Explore core features, such as data replication and fault tolerance and recovery.

Client Drivers

CockroachDB supports the PostgreSQL wire protocol, so you can use any available PostgreSQL client drivers to connect from various languages.

Design Goals

CockroachDB is a distributed SQL database built on top of a transactional and consistent key:value store.

The primary design goals are support for ACID transactions, horizontal scalability and survivability, hence the name.

It aims to tolerate disk, machine, rack, and even datacenter failures with minimal latency disruption and no manual intervention.

CockroachDB nodes are symmetric; a design goal is homogeneous deployment (one binary) with minimal configuration.

How it Works in a Nutshell

CockroachDB implements a single, monolithic sorted map from key to value where both keys and values are byte strings (not unicode).

The map is composed of one or more ranges and each range is backed by data stored in RocksDB (a variant of LevelDB), and is replicated to a total of three or more CockroachDB servers. This enables CockroachDB to scale linearly — theoretically up to 4 exabytes (4E) of logical data.

Ranges are defined by start and end keys. Ranges are merged and split to maintain total byte size within a globally configurable min/max size interval. Range sizes default to target 64M in order to facilitate quick splits and merges and to distribute load at hotspots within a key range. Range replicas are intended to be located in disparate datacenters for survivability (e.g. { US-East, US-West, Japan }, { Ireland, US-East, US-West} , { Ireland, US-East, US-West, Japan, Australia }).

Single mutations to ranges are mediated via an instance of a distributed consensus algorithm to ensure consistency. We’ve chosen to use the Raft consensus algorithm. All consensus state is also stored in RocksDB.

A single logical mutation may affect multiple key/value pairs. Logical mutations have ACID transactional semantics. If all keys affected by a logical mutation fall within the same range, atomicity and consistency are guaranteed by Raft; this is the fast commit path. Otherwise, a non-locking distributed commit protocol is employed between affected ranges.

CockroachDB provides snapshot isolation (SI) and serializable snapshot isolation (SSI) semantics, allowing externally consistent, lock-free reads and writes--both from an historical snapshot timestamp and from the current wall clock time. SI provides lock-free reads and writes but still allows write skew. SSI eliminates write skew, but introduces a performance hit in the case of a contentious system. SSI is the default isolation; clients must consciously decide to trade correctness for performance. CockroachDB implements a limited form of linearalizability, providing ordering for any observer or chain of observers.

Similar to Spanner directories, CockroachDB allows configuration of arbitrary zones of data. This allows replication factor, storage device type, and/or datacenter location to be chosen to optimize performance and/or availability. Unlike Spanner, zones are monolithic and don’t allow movement of fine grained data on the level of entity groups.
