Yeah! CockroachDB is also a really cool multi-cloud DB. That being said, they are really more for transactional workloads, and less purpose built for time-series. I guess there are…

I think the quickest comparison is SQL vs NoSQL. We haven't done performance benchmarks against Druid yet, but do know of several users who have switched because they want to use P…
