Pingcap is loosing hundreds and thousands of potential customers and millions of dollars by not having a single-binary product. The current setup is over-complicated and confusing and I would not touch it with a 10ft pole, as they say. That's why it's worth rewriting the app from mysql syntax to postgre syntax and use cockroachdb more than spending dev, ops, cloud* hours on making legacy code work with this thing. But they'll never learn. It's not like this thing came out just yesterday. I have been keeping my eye on this since it came out and I think it is maybe even superior product to cdb and possibly the best in the category, but again, i am getting head-ache just looking at the setup docs.
