Summary
In a recent blog post, Hasura and CockroachDB demonstrated their ability to handle thousands of requests per second with low CPU utilization. They achieved this by automating the manual effort required in making production-ready APIs, allowing developers to focus on building differentiated products instead of writing APIs. The performance benchmarks showed that a single Kubernetes pod can easily handle significant loads on CockroachDB using just one instance of Hasura. This serverless nature of both Hasura and CockroachDB saves time in scaling systems and cost, as they auto-scale based on load.
