Like Spanner, Cockroach’s correctness depends on the strength of its clocks... Unlike Spanner, CockroachDB users are likely deploying on commodity hardware or the cloud, without GPS and atomic clocks for reference.
I'm curious, do any of the cloud providers offer instances with high-precision clocks? Maybe this is something one of the smaller cloud providers might want to offer to differentiate themselves - instances with GSP clocks.
