Xata employee here. The clarification would be "platform" vs. "host". You get a lot with Xata beyond the core Postgres offering. We automatically replicate to OpenSearch for a great, fast search experience, provide file attachments through the DB itself (with image transformations), provide a pretty cool editor, and are now starting to think heavily towards how migrations could be better (more on this next week). No knock against Neon, who build cool stuff too.

I agree "only" is likely a little aggressive, but marketing is tricky and sometimes the A/B gods appear. We've switched this one-liner a few times in the past year. I'll provide that feedback to the team in any case.

do you guys host within aws? one thing that keepsme gong back to drds is always latency and egress fees. its nice to have a db thats in the same data center as my api server.

hi, yes, we are on AWS and offer several regions: https://xata.io/docs/getting-started/available-regions

Wow, I usually hate marketing pages but that one is awesome
