I like Heroku's PostgreSQL. So far only AWS RDS can compete. Or there is any recommendation of PostgreSQL as a Service?
Heroku Standard 0 (1GB RAM): $50.00 per month
RDS On Demand (1GB RAM): $12.96 per month
RDS REserved 1 Year (1GB RAM): $9.29 per month
- iagooar 12y agoIn terms of what do you want the recommendation? Pricing? Performance? Scalability? Availability? Tech support? I would go with Heroku or AWS RDS. Both truly deliver and make devs / devops sleep better.

- bgentry 12y agoThere are a lot of extra costs in RDS that this calculation excludes: bandwidth, disk I/O, storage and backups. All that stuff is included in Heroku Postgres. Also, you're likely to get much better perf out of the $50 Heroku plan than the cheapest RDS plan because it's a slice of a bigger instance, rather than an underpowered VM. So the real total cost comparison is a lot closer than it seems.
- aubergene 12y agoI've been considering using CartoDB to replace Heroku. I only use basic geo stuff and their maps would be handy. The specs don't really tell you want you get for you money, there's a $29 which might be ok. http://cartodb.com/pricing/ http://cartodb.com/pricing/
