That's very cool. I was going to get a hetzner for some hobby projects. Can you get that without adding a payment mechanism? For some reason, I'd be more cautious about putting my card into Oracle's offering than anyone else.

Only PostgreSQL and SQLite are supported at the moment. Might add MySQL if enough people are interested in it.
