Alexander Korotkov reminds us that there are a lot of data platform products out there:
In a recent Hacker News discussion, there was some confusion about the differences between OrioleDB and Neon. Both look alike at first glance. Both promise a “next‑gen Postgres”. Both have support for cloud‑native storage.
This post explains how the two projects differ in practice. And importantly, OrioleDB is more than an undo log for PostgreSQL.
Alexander is the creator of OrioleDB, so price in any vendor bias you wish as you see the comparison of two up-and-coming technologies.
