predictable and pretty good business move.
these things are easy to evaluate -
1. what's your appetite in running infra ? low - then use the SAAS offering
2. doable - then use a db that has good scalable solutions in this case mysql -> vitess since those products don't come from a database vendor. mongo might qualify too
