You don't provision and manage the infrastructure associated with your DB. Someone else does it for you and you just focus on querying/storing the data and whatever else your business requires you to do.
- zild3d 5y agoNot provisioning & managing is part of it, but the pricing model is important too. e.g. RDS and Mongo Atlas are managed database services so you're not provisioning and managing the infra, but you are paying for dedicated machines and their sizes, etc.
- redwood 5y agoAtlas offers serverless today
- moralestapia 5y ago>but you are paying for dedicated machines and their sizes I see this as provision & managing as well, but yes I see your point. Ultimately it's about the user only caring about its data and nothing else (to the extent possible).
- jedberg 5y agoRDS still requires you to provision servers even if you aren't running them.
- brazzledazzle 5y agoI think Aurora Serverless may be the one exception to that.
