AWS RDS is significantly cheaper

And that is ridiciously expensive imo haha ;)

tbf, its about 2x the EC2 instance cost, so I guess is actually kinda reasonable for a kinda managed service.

But the (backup) storage is really how they get you in my experience. And do not turn on auto growth for diskspace, it will just grow to the limit and then you are paying for 200GB of daily backup storage you are not even using.
