Would like to echo the absurdly expensive bit. They charged us over $140k / year to basically stream ~1TB of production data (50m rows) from our Postgres into a redshift database.
They were part of the reason I started https://canine.sh https://canine.sh as a way to self host more things. Had we had the confidence to host Airbyte or kafka + debezium as an option, we wouldn't have to deal with the atrocious pricing.
Everytime I bring up self hosting, the response is always a rote response of: "Its way too hard", "What if it goes down?", "Just delegate it to the professionals". To me this just seems incredibly defeatist, and its the same set of rebukes regardless if the cloud version costs $100 or $100,000.
end of rant.
