have you seen the pricing? it's insane

[mutex007]

The price is unbelievably fair. Try deploying mysql in the cloud and while you are at it, you get Redis as well for cache and then you hit the wall you need search in your application, so you deploy elastic search as a service as well. Do the math and compare to ours.

Our pricing starts as low as $15 per month

The cheapest instance of amazon cloudsearch is around $79 monthly, You then have to deploy a transactional DBMS and then most likely S3 for storage as well.

It's 700/month (otherwise your product isn't needed because no-sharding? postgresql can do most of the stuff)

the hosted version is upto 8gb ram, don't you think that's low ?

sqlserver + oracle are also insane

[mutex007]

$700 annually. Please read well before you misrepresent us.

By the way Partitioning by Hash and Range as we have stated means "Sharding"

[ddorian43]

the 700$month was mistyped

what i meant is that the correct price is 700 and not 350 since the 350 pricing doesn't include sharding/clustering

[gamblor956]

If $700/year is insane pricing for your needs, you're definitely not in their target market...

$700/year for enterprise-level solutions is generally regarded as suspiciously inexpensive.

ok i'm not, but why not offer another not-so-enterprise-with-reduced-support solution ?

Insane for what? Penny strapped students? I'm not sure they cater to that market.
