If like the original poster, I want to spend less than 15 dollars a month then I would be forced to run my own DB. If price is predominant you have to do it yourself.
I am not the OP but I setup a fairly expensive server to run my Postgres,redis,and other fire and forget processes. Now, five years later, I have never once had to login to change anything.
And thanks to that I saved thousands of dollars versus what I would have paid for a managed systems of the same performance so I could do all kinds of wild experimental projects that would’ve otherwise been too expensive.
The uptime has been phenomenal. We would have hit 5 years uptime, except briefly the data center caught fire resulting in a few hours of downtime.
