Amazing database, but it would be nice to have support of any popular ORM, not only execution of SQL queries directly, e.g. DjangoORM, SqlAlchemy, Hibernate are most wanted. There isn't support of such abilities for now as I can see.

really cool for this distributed SQL with transaction support DB solution.

CockroachDB is based on Spanner IIRC.
