Relational Databases shortlist: Cloud-neutral + Serverless / zero-ops + Multi-region / global
Narrow your database shortlist by cloud alignment, scaling needs, and operational model. A developer who needs a Postgres instance running in 60 seconds for a side project has completely different requirements from an enterprise running 50 million transactions per day with strict compliance controls. Fully managed cloud databases eliminate operational overhead but come with vendor lock-in and pricing that scales steeply with usage. These filters help surface the two or three databases worth a real evaluation given your architecture.
