This comprehensive guide demonstrates how CockroachDB achieves high OLTP performance of over 128,000 tpmC on a TPC-C dataset over 2 terabytes in size. This OLTP performance is over 10x more TPC-C throughput than Amazon Aurora, in a 3x replicated deployment with a zero recovery point objective (RPO), single-digit seconds recovery time objective (RTO), and zero-downtime migrations and upgrades.
