If you have enough budget, go for proprietary databases. StackOverflow runs on a single Sql Sever instance with a hot standby. The tooling is just much better and easy to use. The save on maintenance solely is worthy. The free alternative would be Mysql/Mariadb + Galera Cluster. Not as solid as proprietary ones, but far easier to use and less buggy than Postgres + tons of tools. |

Until someone accidentally run an expensive DDL on your Galera Cluster: now your cluster is down for hours without anyway to cancel that query except nuking the entire database and restore from backup.
