Weird, I just begrudgingly went from Postgres to Dynamo because it was so much cheaper. We're not huge scale though, so I'm wondering where the costs start to diverge the other way.

With Dynamo it seems to depend a lot exactly what you're doing. If you're careful about your queries, it's pretty cheap.
