You're suggesting a hosted Postgres offering isn't "as portable" as a very standard solution?
This isn't DynamoDB here, this is about as standard as it gets. I'm failing to find the supposed lock-in being talked about here.
- BoorishBears 3y agoIs having your frontend hook directly into to your database without a backend a standard? I almost exclusively saw it in locked in BaaS platforms over the years (like Firebase) I've barely even seen PostgREST offered managed: is even one managed Postgres provider with the right combination of PostgREST and go-true to let you move over today? Edit: I also don't get why this is such a point of contention... Since when is BaaS not just a trade off between initial velocity and later stage lock-in? The former is not worthless, but like most tools you should understand the tradeoffs involved
- antifa 3y agoI'm guessing a "managed postgREST" would look like a docker container deployed to AWS App Runner or Google Cloud Run with the standard Postgres RDS hocked up to it.
