Is your AWS RDS bill bloated?
Many companies are wasting money on unused compute due to overprovisioned production databases and non-prod environments running up costs. A recent survey found that 63% of developers needed their allocated compute capacity for 8 hours a day or less, with traffic being much lower the rest of the time. Additionally, 56% of developers were using their dev/test instances for 4 hours per day or less. This translates into significant wasted money on unused resources. Neon is a managed Postgres provider that offers solutions to this problem by allowing users to pay only for the compute they're using through autoscaling and scale-to-zero functionality.
