It is not close to equivalent. But I do want to get a better feel for if Google really has figured how to do basically the impossible. I want to see if this truly scales horizontally but of it does then competitors better hope for a much more detailed paper :) |

It's equivalent, with different (unknown) constraints. Aurora is specifically for scaling workloads in the same way. You can say it's horizontal (machine) over vertical (resource) but it's all a matter of accounting.
The big nono is the Spanner pricepoint. I will stick with Aurora for scaling based on traffic I use, over pricey timeslices.
You would have to have quite a load to justify the switch from cheaper de jour solutions right now (AWS). Relying on the few that do, is a risk.
