Yeah AWS Aurora does have some nice capabilities compared to Cloud SQL; if it weren’t for the other issues mentioned in the article it would have been a driving factor towards choosing AWS. Still Cloud SQL seems “good enough” in general (other than the somewhat ungraceful way maintenance is handled); I’d be curious to hear if there are particular issues you ran into that made you switch to unmanaged SQL?
