I say this "garbage" because in my opinion it's true.

EnterpriseDB has according to LinkedIn between 200-500 people mostly located in AMR and EMEA based on experience with their APAC division. They simply are NOT a top tier support company on par with Oracle, Teradata, SAP etc. I am based in APAC and so my opinion is going to be far different than other parts of the globe.

And the difference with DataStax, MongoDB etc is that those companies are basically the open source projects. They control the steering committees, copyrights, branding etc. And so there there's a lot more confidence in being able to reach someone who actually wrote that part of the code. PostgreSQL has always been far more decentralised.

EnterpriseDB has multiple pg core devs on staff and has been offering excellent pg support for over a decade. A former employer used them and they lived up to their reputation -- very good, not cheap (but cheap compared to Oracle.) I can't imagine they have any trouble selling the usual 30m or 60m SLA contracts into APAC, but maybe I'm wrong. For companies in EMEA or North America they're an excellent choice.

There's a leading DB vendor (at least according to Gartner) which will give you enterprise support if you run MySQL or PostgreSQL.

AWS.

While multi-master replication is still not there (it's still just a synchronous standby and read slaves) all of the heavy lifting is done for you.
