GitHub describes it as CockroachDB , the cloud native, distributed SQL database designed for high availability, effortless scale, and control over data placement.. The repository metadata lists Go as its primary language. The metadata lists the NOASSERTION license. The README describes the project this way: CockroachDB is a cloud-native distributed SQL database designed to build, scale, and manage modern, data-intensive applications.

The README section "What is CockroachDB?" states: 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.

The README section "Docs" states: For guidance on installation, development, deployment, and administration, see our User Documentation.

The README section "Starting with CockroachDB" states: 1. Install CockroachDB: using a pre-built executable or build it from source. 2. Start a local cluster and connect to it via the built-in SQL client. 3. Learn more about CockroachDB SQL. 4. Use a PostgreSQL-compatible driver or ORM to build an app with CockroachDB. 5. Explore core features, such as data replication, automatic rebalancing, and fault tolerance and recovery.
