hello! we're currently checking on costs for hosting a psql through aws aurora. we're crafting load tests to see possible ACU. though would it be possible for the team to share any insights or experiences from existing deployments that integrate SuperTokens with AWS Aurora to learn more about the ACU or possible costs as well? thank you!

Hey @heneftees

great, thanks!!

Hi @heneftees, we are currently using the non-serverless version of aurora postgresql. We tried using the serverless version in between but the cost of that was actually higher for us. db.t3.medium should be good enough to start with. Also, we further reduced our cost by reserving the db instances.

Thanks for the info, @kakashi_44!! Could you also comment on how the costs compared at your scale of MAU? Do the cost savings with db.t3.medium instances hold up as the MAU increases, or is there a point where scaling becomes a concern?

so the db related costs doesn't scale much at all even if you have 1 million MAU (it's insignificant)

thanks for the help guys! 🙏🏼
