System Documentation
What problem does it solve?
Reviews, audits, and modifies CockroachDB cluster settings. Self-Hosted has full control over all settings and start flags. Advanced/BYOC can modify most SQL-level settings but infrastructure settings are managed by CRL. Standard has limited settings access — session variables are the primary tuning mechanism. Basic has minimal settings — use session variables and Cloud Console. Use when auditing configuration, tuning performance, or troubleshooting settings-related issues.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Tier-aware auditing and modification of cluster settings across Self-Hosted, Advanced/BYOC, Standard, and Basic.
- Guidance for applying changes safely with tier-specific constraints and recommended-production settings from references.
- Use cases include auditing configuration after upgrades, tuning performance, diagnosing incidents, and license/infrastructure management.
Quick Start
