People should learn that using an intermediary other than AWS or Google Cloud for convenience is risky. All depends on your level of risk vs. screwing around, but if you want to go cheap then you should run your own instrumentation on top of bare Linux instances from commodity vendors that can be cycled out easily, and use multiple vendors to ensure outages at one are easily remedied.
Heroku is another example. Can’t trust your business to shaky foundations. The moment they started to have frequent outages your company should have been migrating ASAP.
As a side note, I would never use nor invest in brand new databases. Database tech needs to soak for 10+ years before I trust the software is stable and the organization behind it will exist longterm. A startup using a shiny new database is evidence of weak engineering leadership. Similarly, Terraform / Cloudformation is easy enough that needing something other than AWS tooling itself is making less sense from a cost vs. convenience perspective.
