I didn‘t know they extended lightsail to more than VMs. In S3 every request costs money, but in lightsail object storage they are free and you pay bandwidth?

Wouldn‘t it make sense booki g typical SaaS on AWS marketplace? I mean you wouldn‘t have to talk to the billing department, just activate a SaaS within AWS and everything is put on your normal AWS bill?

The problem with these benchmarks is they measure the bandwidth you can push through an established tls connection. Try to build 2000 new tls connections a seconds (yes many are still active and dont need to be restarted) that is what is th

PostgreSQL 14 will add lz4 compression for toast data. But if i remember correctly the first ~700 bytes are always stored inline and only the rest is compressed. But i could be wrong on this.

The biggest problem is you are missing an ecosystem. If someone wants to use it they need to do everything your way. But when using a boilerplate like from laravel, django, ror etc. there is a huuuge ecosystem which can be used too. So many

Sure you can use external repositories. But why bundle old packages when everyone then has to use external repositories to not get really old versions?

PHP and PostgreSQL get a big release every year with good improvements. That you have to wait for the next stable release of debian (or in this case the one after this because they did not upgrade to the newest one) is not a failure of the

Their new charger with the ring magnet wouldn‘t be possible if they are forced to support a common one. I mean they could add it but almost nobody would use it if something like usb-c or standard qi charging is a european requirement.

Destroying the encryption key for a harddrive takes less than a second. Are disks really not fully encrypted when they store sensitive information?

You are not storing passwords in plaintext on their servers. They are very open and document on how it works. Basically you give them fully encrypted information they can‘t use for anything

You can enforce how to execute parts of your PostgreSQL with pg_hintplan. And it has more options than mysql‘s approach ;)

Sure, and this is great. But The newest release is 8.0.26, so there hasn‘t been any minor release yet - in 3 years. And i can‘t find anything about new MySQL features or planned features except the big 8.0 release.

So there has not been any major improvement in MySQL for 3 years? There hasn‘t been released any minor version? Can someone explain the current state more?

You set both services in your ns records. So every day they share the load for dns resolution. If one day one of them is down the client can/will use a different nameserver from your configuration.
