How to simplify your edge computing architecture | Architectural Simplification

What if you could lower your architectural and operational complexity, provide low write latency for all, and make your data consistent and compliant? It's possible when you're using distributed SQL database CockroachDB, and we have the proof.

In this video, Cockroach Labs Technical Evangelist Rob Reid as he demos getting data to multiple locations for low-latency reads. In addition, he compares Postgres vs CockroachDB edge computing architectures and shares what issues you may run into in his Before setup as well as walking through the benefits of our After setup.
