I used YugabyteDB. License was one thing: database is Apache 2 licensed and no strings attached, you can operate it as a service yourself. Not so with CockroachDB, what powerhour said. Other reasons: it’s Postgres code under the hood, not a rewrite, so you can use existing extensions. I have even contributed the support for FDWs, which I use in production.
