Anybody here had experience using Citus Community version? Is it hard to maintain? I was trying to use it on my multi-tenant project but don't really know the maintenance implications.

(quick additional note)

If you're looking to use Citus Community edition for your multi-tenant project, one thing to keep in mind is how you set up replication.

Citus comes with two replication methods: streaming and statement replication. The streaming replication method is more suitable for multi-tenant apps. In the Citus Community version (if you need replication), you will need to set this up yourself.

There are definitely people that use the community version, unfortunately we don't have a perfect count or record of all the people, cause well open source :)

As far as maintaining it, there are of course a number of benefits to the managed service side and then the enterprise version if you want to run on your own hardware and self-manage. If you're comfortable running and managing your own Postgres then the community version could absolutely work for you, here's actually a recent write-up from Hipmunk who is using the community version - https://hipmunk.github.io/posts/2017/Aug/16/a-fare-cache-in-...
