Anecdotal - I've been using Gitlab for a few years on some projects, and haven't experienced any downtime issues with them of this magnitude.
To be fair, Gitlab accidentally deleted 6 hours worth of data from their database some time ago.

Any links? Interested on reading more about this
Here’s one https://www.wsj.com/articles/amazon-scooped-up-data-from-its... The gist is that yes it’s true. They’d come out with their own Amazon Basics branded stuff and push it to the top.
But that's amazon, not AWS.

That wasn't clear. Side note: "Autosharding" is largely a myth that unproven databases are touting. Sharding is complex and requires planning and control. Databases that start shuffling data round without oversight produce nasty surprises. Trying to be too magic is normally always a mistake with databases.
Yeah, fair, totally get it. Wasn't aiming to spread FUD, and I know that FDB is a little hard to compare against... it is pretty magic with how it routes and shards :D ( https://forums.foundationdb.org/t/keyspace-partitions-perfor... )
