CockroachDB is basically "run postgres on a cluster with more fault tolerance" - you can have machines (or entire datacenters) going down, netsplits etc. and as long as there's enough infra up to keep going, it will.
Presumably only a small subset of postgres users really need this feature - and those that do, are big enough to need an enterprise licence.
I'll admit I haven't worked directly in this space in a good while, but the whole mystery terms really rubs me the wrong way .
For example if I have a company that provisions databases on behalf of my clients, is this 10 million revenue cap for my company, or for the clients themselves .
The pricing isn't even on the website for self hosting, I presume it's one of those if you need to ask you can't afford it type situations.
Plus you're locking yourself into a vendor that has no worries about changing its terms again later on.
>Required only during the trial period. Businesses that cannot accommodate telemetry may contact sales to request an exception. Paid use does not require telemetry.
From some of the industries I've worked in, this is a massive red flag. We don't want to give you telemetry at any point in our process.
