About
Cockroach Labs is the company behind CockroachDB, a cloud-native distributed SQL database designed for globally distributed applications that require consistent transactions, high availability, and horizontal scalability without the operational complexity of traditional sharded databases. Founded in 2015 by Peter Mattis, Spencer Kimball, and Ben Darnell — all ex-Google engineers who worked on Spanner and Bigtable — Cockroach Labs built CockroachDB on the same architectural principles as Google Spanner, making enterprise-grade distributed SQL available to organizations that cannot build or afford Google's internal infrastructure.
