Choose the db hosting strategy #14

I did some reaserch for free postgres hosting options and here is what I found:

ElephantSQL

20MB data storage, but only 5 concurrent connections which might become a problem as potentially more than one microservice might connect to the DB and more than one person can be connecting while testing locally

AWS RDS

20GB storage but it is free only if its the only RDS instance running in an account

Supabase

500MB storage but has this weird constraint "Free projects are paused after one week of inactivity", which we might avoid by using keepAlive queries, but I am not sure
