In this Cloud Wars Expo Moment, Peter Guagenti, Chief Marketing Officer, Cockroach Labs, shares insights into the company’s focus on the development and dissemination of its cloud database.
Highlights
00:16 — Guagenti says that historically, scaling operational and transactional data has been the challenge, not analytics — this is the focus of Cockroach Labs
00:41 — Why is the focus of Cockroach Labs on transactional data? “Because it equates to revenue,” says Guagenti. Additionally, more developers and IT teams want to test and deploy Cockroach Labs’ cloud database for the first time after having found that “everything else failed.”
01:24 — The team at Cockroach Labs believes that it has the lowest total cost of ownership among relational systems and transactional systems, due to the distributed nature of the software. One of the company’s investors estimated that Cockroach Labs reduced the operational time and cost by 80% in comparison to a traditional relational system.
