Introducing ODS – High performances SQL database as a service

  Where are these hosted? Much queries per second is fine, but I care about latency. Unless you're in AWS, it'll be hard to beat AWS RDS on that count.

    What about the legal issues around holding your data in a country/jurisdiction other than your own? I appreciate this is the same issue with AWS, Azure etc. Given recent Brexit and Trump disasters, is the location 'safe'.

    Online.net's data centres are all located in the Paris region.

  Looks to be very specifically geared towards a certain type of database load. The ratio of CPU, RAM and storage is fixed, and (in my opinion) the offering includes tons of CPU/RAM with relatively paltry storage sizes. Additionally, no built-in HA / replication options. That said, this nicely illustrates how nearly any competent setup will run circles around RDS in terms of queries per second. And yet I still choose RDS…

    Agreed, not being able to scale storage independently of CPU is kind of a deal breaker. Feels like it's just a way to get you up to higher instance types whether you need the CPU or not.
