Using CockroachDB with Rails

When I work in Rails apps, I don’t find myself worrying too much about the database. Since Rails natively supports popular databases like MySQL and PostgreSQL, I usually only need to make a few config changes to get an application’s database up and running. I don’t find myself running into too many problems using databases that Rails doesn’t support either. Thanks to Rails’ well documented database interface and strong community support, I still only need a few config changes to use databases like Oracle and SQL Server.If you’re with me so far, then it should come as no surprise that it’s just as easy to use CockroachDB with Rails! 🎉.
