Cockroach Labs is the New York-based software company that builds CockroachDB, a cloud-native, distributed, PostgreSQL-compatible SQL database. CockroachDB is offered as Cockroach Labs' fully managed cloud service (Basic, Standard, and Advanced plans) and as self-hosted software. The company provides two primary developer APIs: the CockroachDB Cloud API for managing the lifecycle of cloud-hosted clusters, and the CockroachDB Cluster API exposed by every node for cluster health, monitoring, and operational status. CockroachDB is used in production by banking, retail, gaming, and media companies including Bose, Hard Rock Digital, DoorDash, and Netflix.

REST API hosted by every CockroachDB node under the /api/v2 base path, exposed on the same HTTP port as the DB Console (default 8080). Provides health checks, node detail, hot range info, session and query introspection, database and table metadata, and event log retrieval. Authentication uses session tokens obtained via /api/v2/login/ and passed in the X-Cockroach-API-Session header. Self-hosted operators typically front the cluster API with a load balancer or service mesh.
