What's Next?

Quick start a single- or multi-node cluster locally and talk to it via the built-in SQL client.

Note:
By default, each node of a CockroachDB cluster periodically shares anonymous usage details with Cockroach Labs. For an explanation of the details that get shared and how to opt-out of reporting, see Diagnostics Reporting.
