I think this is a very important thing to prioritize for a DB of this nature. Postgres/RDBMS connections in general are an extreme weak spot for containerized/serverless applications.

DynamoDB/ElasticSearch's approach of not needing to establish/maintain a connection seems like the ideal solution. I think for applications that would utilize your DB, a minor hit to the speed of an individual request is well worth it as compared to being able to scale up the amount of simultaneous requests.
