Citus Cloud is perhaps most exciting me because it has tremendous momentum: as the combined product of deep technical expertise meeting top-flight open source software meeting tons of end user experience, it's quickly outpacing platforms which are locked-in anachronisms. Take Redshift: Postgres 8.4? After you've used some of the features in 9.6, it's hard to go back. It'd be interesting to see some numbers around Citus Cloud's battle-tested deployments. As a side note, these blog posts on high-level techniques and open source tools (e.g. PgBouncer, wal-e) are useful for anyone considering deploying an on-prem version of Citus as part of a product – thanks, Ozgun! Usual disclaimers apply: not an employee, but big fan of the team and technology and it's great to see them gaining well-deserved mindshare.
