Looks to be very specifically geared towards a certain type of database load. The ratio of CPU, RAM and storage is fixed, and (in my opinion) the offering includes tons of CPU/RAM with relatively paltry storage sizes.<p>Additionally, no built-in HA / replication options.<p>That said, this nicely illustrates how nearly any competent setup will run circles around RDS in terms of queries per second.<p>And yet I still choose RDS…
Where are these hosted?<p>Much queries per second is fine, but I care about latency. Unless you're in AWS, it'll be hard to beat AWS RDS on that count.
