Having previously been on several managed PostgreSQL providers and now on AWS Aurora -- Aurora has been pretty great in terms of reliability and performance with large row counts and upsert performance.
However, Aurora isn't cheap and is at least ~80% of our monthly AWS bill. I wonder how it is cheaper than Heroku's previous offerings? Is it Aurora Serverless v2 or something like that to reduce cost? Aurora billing is largely around IOPS, and Heroku's pricing doesn't seem to reflect that.
