I doubt even VC money can afford this service.

Serverless Aurora is incredibly expensive for most workloads. I have yet to find a use case for any SaaS product that is used >4 hours a day. Since all my products span at least 3 time zones there is at least 12 hours of activity a day.

We found this out the hard way in a small startup. The per query and I/O expense was through the roof.

Did it work though? Did you achieve unlimited scaling? Because if so you should compare the price to the price of a team of great minds such as in this article, working for 2 years to get a solution.

I bet it still would be cheaper to pay people over Amazon, but I'm curious about the numbers

It worked fine, the problem was our workloads were minuscule and it still cost $3,000 a month to support 50ish users on a lightly used platform.

The same load in a non-Serverless instance was around $100/month.
