A Spanner setup that will outperform PostgreSQL on a hefty x86 box will run you close to 150-200K a month.
- puzzle 9y agoA hefty box is a SPOF, so that's an apple to oranges comparison. How do you upgrade that machine to a newer Postgres version?
- Thaxll 9y agohaha, so you run million of users out of a single box, no HA, sharding, backup / re-import that takes hours ect ... please... It's not all about performance, it's about running a business that's up most of the time.
- qaq 9y agoDid I ever claim millions of users? I said a spanner setup that will outperform PG on big x86 box will cost 150-200K per month. All issues you outline are trivial to solve.
- nemothekid 9y agoHA is trivial...?
