been curious as to what sort of savings you've been able to get with supabase because we are approaching a few thousand dollars to store a couple terabytes on DynamoDB

Thinking of buying a dedicated server from Hetzner to run Supabase on it instead but worried about latency. awful that we have to move away from AWS for this but with four/five dedicated servers in EU, US-West, US-East, Singapore and Tokyo, we could have a fixed monthly storage/database cost with some globalized latency (client would connect to whichever dedicated server is available).

we realize that we are at complete mercy of AWS as was expected but the database storage cost was a curveball, so much so that we are thinking of self-hosting database ourselves but seems like a daunting task of its own.

tldr: unpredictability and variability of storage size on Dynamodb is forcing us to explore a more reliable fixed cost solution via self-hosting and hardening our dedicated servers running Supabase.
