The Postgres Plus Cloud Database was announced early this year.
As I do not have a lot of experience on database clustering, I am wondering which one I should use. Can anyone give me a compare between Postgres Plus Cloud Database and Amazon RDS in terms of features, cost and maintenance?

Thanks!
Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL gives you access to the capabilities of the familiar PostgreSQL database engine. This means that the code, applications, and tools you already use today with your existing databases can be used with Amazon RDS.
Amazon RDS supports DB instances running several editions of PostgreSQL. You can specify any currently available PostgreSQL version when creating a new DB instance. You can specify the major version (such as PostgreSQL 14), and any available minor version for the specified major version.
Amazon RDS helps organizations handle relational database management tasks such as migration, backup, recovery and patching. Some of the main features of Amazon RDS are replication, high performance storage and failure detection. One of the biggest advantages of Amazon RDS is its ease of use.
The significant difference between these two services is that Amazon RDS is relational, whereas DynamoDB is a NoSQL database engine. In terms of storage size, DynamoDB stands out with its ability to support tables of any size. But with RDS, the storage size changes based on the database engine we use.
PostgreSQL is not (yet) supported by Amazon RDS. So it's not easy to answer your question.
In any case: Heroku could be an alternative to Postgres Plus Cloud Database.
