  For their hosted system, it's not particularly worse than hosted Postgres on RDS. RDS costs $0.50/hr for a 4 core/32GB db.r5.xlarge. Azure-hosted Citus for multi-node workloads on a similarly sized node are $0.618/node/hr. Both double in price to have a high availability backup cluster. https://aws.amazon.com/rds/postgresql/pricing/ https://aws.amazon.com/rds/postgresql/pricing/ https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/postgresql/hyperscale-citus/#pricing https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/postgresql... Of course, the answer is that both are insane markups. But it's worth being able to focus on other things!

  There's Yugabyte (top half of Postgres with bottom half proprietary DocDB data layer) or CockroachDB (completely new stack) if you just want scalable Postgres-flavored SQL. https://www.yugabyte.com/ https://www.yugabyte.com/ https://www.cockroachlabs.com/ https://www.cockroachlabs.com/

  Is that still the case? The shard rebalancer was Open Sourced recently; what features do you need that are still not open sourced? 1: https://www.citusdata.com/blog/2021/03/13/scaling-out-postgres-with-citus-open-source-shard-rebalancer/ https://www.citusdata.com/blog/2021/03/13/scaling-out-postgr... 2. https://www.citusdata.com/product/comparison https://www.citusdata.com/product/comparison
