I'm new to cockroach, and couldnt find this info on the website. Does cockraoch
support cross- region communication in aws?
@rahulpilani Yes, we support cross-region communication (as long as your firewall rules are set up to allow it). However, we don’t currently handle high-latency networks very well, so we recommend only using regions on a single continent for now

Thanks @bdarnell. Whats the issue with high latency? Does it result in incorrectness or lower throughput?

@rahulpilani It’s a performance problem, not a correctness issue. We haven’t done much testing in high-latency environments yet but there are some issues reported in #6046
