That's technically true, though Hasura is a well-funded startup with a $99+/mo cloud offering and Enterprise features while postgraphile is one main open-source developer who has support contracts available and accepts donations (the "pro" package is pretty minimal and costs just ~$25/mo). You can get started with Hasura for free which is great, and you can run it on your own servers (if you want to manage a Haskell service) which is also great, but in practice choosing Hasura means you're relying on a company for your backend and choosing postgraphile means you're relying on an express plugin which you can get a support plan for. I'm not saying one is the better choice than the other for this reason, many would prefer the funded company.

> (if you want to manage a Haskell service) Nowadays most of these self-hosted apps run on Docker containers as a wonderful abstraction. For example, in my company we have self hosted Metabase on App Engine Flex. It is written with Clojure and runs on the JVM. I know nothing about these things, yet I was able to make it run with high availability. You could also run it on Kubernetes or other similar options elsewhere.

  That's a good point; I've always assumed this isn't common with Hasura but I honestly have no idea. $99/mo just seems like a great deal if your bandwidth usage fits within the included 20GB/mo.
