Recommended hosting provider for Postgres

The options we’re looking at for Postgres hosting are Compose.io and AWS RDS. Anyone have experience with either and how they compare?

Any other options to look at?

From compose.io:

You can start with 1GB for $17.50/mo and, as your data grows, so does your database for only $12.00 for each additional GB. Your RAM, CPU, and I/O performance increase as your data scales.

Is this for real? 20gb worth of DB would cost you $245.50, and gets you 2gb of ram. AWS at that price is $51.84 /mo for an instance with equivalent ram, and (20*0.1) = 2 dollars a month for the 20gb for a grand total of $53.84.

Compose.io’s slider doesn’t even go above 100gb.

I can’t speak for compose.io, but RDS has been easy to use for us. Daily backups, multi availability zone etc.

To be honest all hosted offerings are a bit of a joke, RDS 30,000 IOPS for some ungodly amount of money that’s 1/2 of the performance of single low end SSD drive and 1/20 the performance of a decent PCI-E SSD.

Sure, but at the same time it’s cheaper than a dedicated dev ops person, and you can’t screw it up as badly.
