> What makes you think cloud is cheap, or reliable? "cheap" is relative, if your data is not large (gigabytes) then cost will likely be much smaller compared to expenses on engineer supporting custom solution. > if the uptime is less than 99.95 % It doesn't mean their services experience this downtime. They have their reputation supporting revenue on the line. Customers will go somewhere else if experience frequent downtime. But the point is that with custom pgsql installation it is nontrivial to setup and support any kind of fault tolerance, plus you have a chance of all other kind of outages: network, your hosting provider, etc. Buying cloud offering with one click looks like no brainer base line. |
