Nice, thank you for the links and the writeups! What would you say are the downsides then of going from RDS PG to this? Sounds like there are basically none, but I'm still skeptical. Should I not be?
We've definitely heard of Citus many times as well, it will be interesting to see what competition in this space will look like soon.
- craigkerstiens 10y agoAt this point it's a lot of guess on what the downsides will be. On the pages for Aurora they mention they're working on support for extensions and various PLs, but it's unclear if they're supported in the beta at this time. It's also unclear if they had to fork off in some way, if they did it will most likely lag behind what core Postgres at each new release. Of course right now it's a lot of guesswork. It should be much more clear when it gets into GA on what the trade-offs are.
- akurilin 10y agoGot it, thanks for clarifying. Hopefully if anybody from AWS sees this they can perhaps do extra nudging on their end about making SLAs more transparent to end users.
