Aren't there any good managed postgres solutions supporting citus? The decision here seems to have been to invent a whole new sharding solution instead of building enough in house DBA to self-host postgres (if you want to stay on Amazon, you can use any extension you want on EC2). Speaks for the state of engineering right now.

Crunchy data (which can run on AWS/Azure/GCP) supports Citus: https://www.crunchydata.com/blog/announcing-citus-support-fo...

Citus was bought by Microsoft so now it's only offered as Azure managed service.

It's AGPL so you can self-host. You can even pay someone to host it for you if you don't like Microsoft's offer. I find it easier than rolling your own AND self-hosting.

Is there another managed service of Citus that is NOT offered by MSFT? I understand it's legally possible, but is anyone else actually hosting a managed Citus?

Yes, the confusingly named “Azure Cosmos DB for PostgreSQL”
