If youre a fan of DigitalOcean and its powerful but simple platform to deploy cloud-based infrastructure, youll appreciate CockroachDB: its similarly simple to deploy and provides your stack a lot of power and flexibility. CockroachDB is a natural fit within DigitalOceans no-fuss framework: both are for developers who like technology thats easy-to-reason-about and lets them get work done quickly.

To demonstrate the synergy between DigitalOcean and CockroachDB, this talk will demo how to build and deploy a distributed 3-node cluster in under 20 minutes. With a cluster live, we will then walk through some of CockroachDBs core features (automatic data distribution and survivability) to give a better sense of how it makes your life easier.

Agenda:

6:307pm: Food and Drinks

78pm: Presentations and Demo by CockroachDB

Sean Loiselle, Senior Technical Writer

Marc Berhault, Site Reliability Engineer
