Ask HN: How hard is it to manage self hosted Postgres?
I want PG for hobby side projects with a user base.
I was looking at fly.io which has a nice free tier and Im aware of the digital ocean offering.
I’ve been self hosting some infra on Hetzner and was wondering how much of a pain it would be to just self host? It seems much cheaper, but don’t want to shoot myself in the foot
- LouDFPV 4y agoSelf host in the cloud or self host locally? I run a bitnami vm locally accessable by token based ssh or key based openvpn. So in essence its in the cloud

- XCSme 4y agoIf it's anything like MySQL, you just set it up and it works forever unless your database size grows really big and it either gets slow or you run out of space.
