I've given some thought to the PG offering -- $15/mo is really just for a dev instance with some minimal backup, it costs more to do anything production-level.

My conclusion -- YMMV! -- is that I'd happily pay that much to "set and forget" the DB in a proof-of-concept or hobby context. I realize it's not perfect, and there are cheaper options, but I really think they gave us a cheap-enough deal, and you can always play sysadmin if it's too much for you.

I'm not a big DO customer but I appreciate their pricing transparency: having worked professionally with 2/3 of the major Cloud companies I would never put anything there that's billed to my own account.
