Sound familiar?

  • ▸ Multi-region table design is the next architectural call — REGIONAL BY ROW gives the right data-residency story but the access patterns haven't been audited and the locality decisions are open.
  • ▸ Postgres → CockroachDB schema audit needs to happen before the migration timeline gets committed — DDL gaps and Postgres-specific features could break the "drop-in" story badly.
  • ▸ Cloud Serverless vs Dedicated economics are unclear — finance wants a defensible TCO model before signing the renewal, and the workload-shape assumptions need to be tested.

Strategic advisory — not execution

CockroachDB Consulting Services

In short: CockroachDB consulting is strategic advisory delivered as written recommendations — multi-region table and locality design, Postgres-to-CockroachDB MOLT migration planning, Cloud Serverless vs Dedicated sizing, serializable-isolation impact analysis, and BSL/CCL licensing strategy. You need it before committing to a multi-region layout, a migration timeline, or a Cloud renewal.

Multi-region table design, MOLT migration planning, Cloud Serverless vs Dedicated sizing, and the serializable isolation impact analysis on your existing query patterns. See the CockroachDB hub for the broader services overview, or the Postgres-vs-Cockroach comparison for the side-by-side decision matrix.

What our CockroachDB consulting covers

Each deliverable is a written decision document, sized topology proposal, or costed trade-off analysis.

Multi-Region Table Design
REGIONAL BY TABLE vs REGIONAL BY ROW vs GLOBAL locality decisions mapped to your access patterns, data-residency requirements, and cross-region latency budgets.
Postgres → Cockroach Migration
Schema audit (DDL gaps, extension dependencies), application audit (Read Committed assumptions, transaction-retry handling), MOLT planning — before any cutover.
Cloud Sizing & Operations
Cloud Serverless vs Dedicated decision modelling, node sizing for Dedicated tier, region placement, ingress topology, backup/restore patterns.
Cost & TCO Analysis
Realistic TCO across self-managed, Cloud Serverless, Cloud Dedicated — modelled against actual workload throughput, region count, and growth curve.
Serializable Isolation Impact
Audit existing query patterns for contention risk, application retry-middleware design, hot-row analysis, and where serializable isolation needs explicit handling.
Engine Decision Matrix
CockroachDB vs TiDB vs YugabyteDB vs "stay on Postgres" — modelled against the actual workload, not vendor brochures.
Team Enablement
Operational playbooks, on-call handoff, retry-middleware patterns, and the runbook outlines that come with each architectural decision we recommend.
