I don't want limits on the kinds of queries I can run when those limits are artificial ones imposed to work around limitations of a too-simple billing system instead of being inherent in the domain. I'm willing to pay extra for the occasional huge query, but I wouldn't feel comfortable knowing I couldn't make it at all.

That said, a production OLTP workload database would also have query timeout imposed, otherwise those fine folks in the crappy query writing department will surely bring it down.

How much overlap is there in the “serverless database that starts fast” group and the “might have a query that runs for 60 sec” group? If you’re running queries that are that complex, wouldn’t you be better served with a different database service?

If I used two services, I'd have to move data from one service to another.
