CockroachDB releases Cockroach Continuum to pool compute across agentic workloads

According to CIO, Cockroach Labs released Cockroach Continuum, a database fleet management platform that pools compute and storage across isolated CockroachDB databases to share capacity across workloads rather than reserving it for peak demand. The platform addresses the difficulty of sizing traditional databases for agentic applications that create highly concurrent, unpredictable, and often short-lived workloads that leave provisioned compute idle between bursts.
