CockroachDB is an Open Source NewSQL DBMS. If you are new to the NewSQL world – CockroachDB can run on Raspberry Pi to large cluster of servers. Distributed Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) is one of the widely known use case of CockroachDB. CockroachDB is an interesting DBMS. It uses PostgreSQL protocol and you’ll feel to find some MySQL syntax. It has good things of both RDBMS and NoSQL. It is inspired by Google Spanner and developed by three ex-Google employees of Google. CockroackDB allows use to use the PostgreSQL drivers. So, we can practically reuse all the frameworks that have emerged in the “old era”. This is how we use the CLI :

Vim
1

3
CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS test;
USE test;
...

Their official site has a guide to migrate from MySQL, PostgreSQL etc.

How to Install CockroachDB on Ubuntu Server

 

Steps to Install CockroachDB

 

You can install CockroachDB in the way of traditional installation or from Docker Hub. We are showing the steps of traditional SSH installation as one server, insecure installation with 512MB RAM. You need the IP address of the server, port 8080 and port 26257.

One server installation/running is just easy. wget the binary. I am using /var/www/html just for an example location :

Vim
1
2
3
4
5
6
#
mkdir -p /var/www/html/cockroachdb
cd /var/www/html/cockroachdb
wget https://binaries.cockroachdb.com/cockroach-latest.linux-amd64.tgz
 
#

Extract the downloaded file and delete the tarball :

Vim
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
#
 
tar -xvzf cockroach-latest.linux-amd64.tgz
ls -al
rm cockroach-latest.linux-amd64.tgz
ls -al
 
#

We will copy the file to /usr/local/bin/ so that running a command from terminal finds it :

Vim
1
2
3
4
5
#
 
cp cockroach-latest.linux-amd64/cockroach /usr/local/bin/
 
#

Now, if you run :

Vim
1
2
3
4
5
#
 
cockroach version
 
#

You’ll get response. It is the “installation”. You have to start it in this way :

Vim
1
2
3
#
cockroach start --insecure --background --advertise-host=23.24.25.26
#

23.24.25.26 is an example IP address of the server. You will get a warning message like this :

Vim
1

You can access its web dashboard by visiting the URL http://23.24.25.26:8080 on your web browser. You can start the SQL client on SSH in this way :

Vim

This ends this small guide to get started.
