The thing about RDS is that you’re paying for database backups and failover etc to be someone else’s problem. Given that the data is often an extremely critical art of the application and the high chance that you are probably not doing it right if you’re not an expert it’s often worth it to pay for managed db. RDS is a pretty raw deal in that space though. Someone else rightfully pointed out that you can get Supabase managed db for $30 USD per month which is significantly cheaper

Rds starts at $15/month so how is $30 significantly cheaper?
