Utter insanity. So much cost and complexity, and for what? Startups don’t think about costs or runway anymore, all they care about is “modern infrastructure”. The argument for RDS seems to be “we can’t automate backups”. What on earth?

Wow, what an astute comment! Thank you! P.S. to the original person concerned about this though… for your own sake and your successors, please keep trying.

Assuming that was sarcastic, you are free to try, I guess everyone needs to try it once. Just do the exercise of deciding what is really important first, so you can make sure you succeed for that stuff.
