Case Study: Tierion achieves 100M proofs per day across clouds with CockroachDB (Cockroach Labs)

Tierion Generates 100M Proofs / Day Across Clouds with CockroachDB

Tierion is building a “global proof engine” — a distributed ledger that anchors and verifies data across cloud providers — and needed a system of record that was distributed, strongly consistent, easily scalable, and deployable by partners. After evaluating options, Tierion selected Cockroach Labs’ CockroachDB to meet those requirements for their mission‑critical ledger.

CockroachDB delivered serializable consistency, cloud‑native scaling, and ACID transactions that removed Tierion’s complex locking services and legacy intermediate storage, letting partners join the same ledger in any environment. With Cockroach Labs’ CockroachDB, Tierion now stores its entire internal blockchain and intermediary proofs, achieves over 4,000 operations per second, and supports thousands of nodes generating about 100 million proofs per day across multi‑cloud deployments.
