If you are measuring a monthly price in 10ths of a penny - the cost can't be that high. Does AWS even bill monthly in tenths of a penny? I normally calculate AWS projections in dollars.
I think folks are used to RDS type pricing models, so would expect that to remain popular.
Some notes:
Reserved instance pricing easily saves 40%+ on a one year term with AWS. For folks where RDS is really at the top end of their budget, I think its a bit weird not to bring costs down with reserved instances - most large production workloads don't handle being spun up and down every hour etc. Not sure what planetscale offers there.
For dynamic pricing AWS offers other datastores. Aurora Serverless 2 is I think
$0.10 per GB/month of storage. So $100K per PB?
$0.30 per million transactions
They say
"Whatever that number produces you can line up with the Amazon RDS multi-AZ price you’re currently paying Amazon."
Do we have confirmation that plantscale has a proper multi-AZ architecture?
