CockroachDB

CockroachDB is a distributed SQL database with strong consistency, PostgreSQL compatibility, and a managed cloud offering. The Cloud API manages cluster lifecycle; the Cluster API exposes per-node operational state for monitoring and troubleshooting.

agent aware

Real signal across most facets with visible, nameable gaps — the contract exists but is thin, or the portal is good while governance and commercial terms are absent.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles CockroachDB the way a machine reads it — 207 machine-readable artifacts across 2 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — CockroachDB scores 44.3/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 23/100 (agent aware). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

Kin Score

This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance. Every facet and dimension name is a link: it opens that measurement's page on APIs.io, where the rating runs across the whole catalog — the exact checks that feed it, how every profiled provider distributes on it, and who is at the top of it.

How we profile CockroachDB

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for CockroachDB. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.

APIs 26

Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.

Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

CockroachDB APIKeys API

Manage API keys for programmatic access, including creation, retrieval, listing, updating, and deletion.

CockroachDB AuditLogs API

Retrieve audit log events for the organization to support compliance and security investigations.

CockroachDB Auth API

Authenticate to the Cluster API by creating and terminating API sessions. Session tokens are passed via the X-Cockroach-API-Session header on subsequent requests.

CockroachDB BackupRestore API

Manage cluster backups, backup configurations, and restore operations for CockroachDB clusters.

CockroachDB Billing API

Retrieve invoices and billing information for the CockroachDB Cloud organization.

CockroachDB Clusters API

CockroachDB CMEK API

Manage customer-managed encryption keys (CMEK) for encrypting cluster data at rest using customer-controlled keys.

CockroachDB Databases API

Manage databases within a CockroachDB cluster, including creation, listing, updating, and deletion.

CockroachDB EgressRules API

Configure egress traffic rules and egress private endpoints for outbound cluster network traffic.

CockroachDB Folders API

Organize clusters and other resources into hierarchical folder structures within the organization.

CockroachDB Health API

Check the health and readiness of individual CockroachDB nodes. The health endpoint can report whether the node is live and fully operational for accepting SQL connections.

CockroachDB IPAllowlists API

Configure IP allowlist entries to control network access to a cluster.

CockroachDB JWTIssuers API

Manage JWT issuer configurations for external identity provider integrations.

CockroachDB LogExport API

Configure log export to external destinations such as AWS CloudWatch or GCP Cloud Logging.

CockroachDB MaintenanceWindows API

Configure maintenance windows and blackout periods for cluster upgrade scheduling.

CockroachDB MetricExport API

Configure metric export integrations including AWS CloudWatch, Datadog, and Prometheus.

CockroachDB Nodes API

Retrieve information about all nodes in the cluster, including their status, address, locality, and operational metrics.

CockroachDB Organizations API

Retrieve information about the caller's CockroachDB Cloud organization.

CockroachDB PrivateEndpoints API

Manage private endpoint services and connections for secure VPC-level access to clusters.

CockroachDB Ranges API

CockroachDB RoleManagement API

Manage role-based access control, including assigning and removing roles for users across organization, folder, and cluster scopes.

CockroachDB Rules API

Retrieve alerting rules templates for use with Prometheus-compatible alerting systems.

CockroachDB ServiceAccounts API

Manage service accounts used for machine-to-machine authentication within the organization.

CockroachDB Sessions API

CockroachDB VersionDeferral API

Manage cluster version deferral policies to delay automatic CockroachDB version upgrades.

Postman Collections 26

A runnable collection turns the contract into something a developer can execute in seconds. We profile them because the fastest way to trust an API is to make a real call against it.

Ready-to-run Postman collections for exercising this provider's APIs.

Open Collections 29

Open, tool-agnostic collections carry the same runnable value as Postman without locking you to one client — the portable, forkable form of the same exercise.

Pricing Plans 1

Pricing is part of the interface. Machine-readable plans tell you what a tier costs and includes before you commit — one of the things the Kin Score reads for access clarity — renamed from commercial clarity in rubric 0.12, because a free statutory interface has access terms and no commercial ones.

Published pricing tiers and plan structures.

Rate Limits 1

Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.

Documented rate limits and quota policies.

RATE LIMITS

FinOps 1

Cost, billing, and metering signals let a buyer model the financial operations of an API before it's live. We profile them for the same reason we profile pricing: the money is part of the contract.

Cost, billing, and metering signals for API financial operations.

Event Specifications 1

Not every API is request/response. AsyncAPI describes the event-driven and streaming side — the webhooks and channels — so the asynchronous half of the interface is documented the same way the synchronous half is.

Semantic Vocabularies 1

JSON-LD contexts give the data shared meaning across APIs. We profile them because semantics are what let a machine reconcile 'customer' here with 'customer' somewhere else.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of CockroachDB, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
