We are using this where high traffic is going on , so if one node crash we are still operational.

And it's SQL is just like postgreDB.

It can be used on heavy traffic project.

CockroachDB is an innovation solution to easily scaling our SQL database and the fact that scaling works out of the box is a huge advantage to our team. Some of the advice features, such as managing data locality, are also very convenient and have saved our team many, many hours of work by not having to implement these features ourselves.
