Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/healthchecks/healthchecks/issues/1136

I've been experimenting with CockroachDB and thought it could be a valuable addition as a database option for our app. It's compatible with PostgreSQL, so integrating it should be straightforward.

CockroachDB's distributed architecture ensures high availability, meaning our app wouldn't rely on a single database that could fail and cause downtime. I've already made the necessary adjustments to get CockroachDB working with our application, and it's been performing well in my tests.

I believe this could enhance the resilience of our deployments. If you're interested, I can submit a pull request with the changes.

Sorry @cuu508, that was not entirely AI slop. I used an LLM to help write the ticket description as I wanted to be clear and comprehensive. Can you please re-open the issue? I actually wanted to implement this and have a fork going for passing all the tests and writing the documentation.

EDIT

I've edited the ticket description to sound less AI'y. Sorry.
