- achristmascarl 1y agoI haven't used PlanetScale before, but AWS Aurora limits IOPS and network performance based on your instance size, so you end up in scenarios where you really wish you had more throughput, but sizing up your instance would be a very, very expensive solution
- primitivesuave 1y agoI use Aurora Postgres at work, where we pay approximately 9x more for equivalent resources to PlanetScale (according to their pricing page [1]). This is not an endorsement of PlanetScale as I've never used it, just pointing out that the premium for using Aurora Postgres is many multiples higher than virtually every other Postgres provider. 1. https://planetscale.com/pricing?architecture=x86-64&cluster=PS-640&storage=1500&backup=20 https://planetscale.com/pricing?architecture=x86-64&cluster=...
