> Additionally, they claim CockroachDB Cloud is free for use "up to 10 GiB of storage and 50M RUs per organization per month".
Take in account, that the constant CPU/Mem/Query monitoring that CRDB does, eats up around 20 a 30M RUs per month. There are some people that complained as to why there free instances lost so much capacity. And those RU are not 1:1, like, you do a insert, its 1RU, oooo, no ... Its like 9 to 12RU or something.
Its very easy to eat all those RUs on a simply website. Let alone something that needs to scale. Trust me, your better of self deploying but then you enjoy the issue of the new licenses / forced telemetric / forced phone home, or spend 125$+ / vcpu (good luck finding out the price, we only know these numbers from people breaking nda offers). They are very aggressive in sales.
Its not worth it to tie your company to a product, that can chance licenses on a whim, that charges Oracle prices (and uses the same tactics). I am very sure that some of their sales staff is ex-Oracle employees. ;)
