This is a real kick in the teeth for existing skysql customers.

Xpand though? That's really silly. It's a great engine. Maybe Samsung could buy it? I wouldn't be surprised if we saw their published efforts eventually into migrating to some like ScyllaDB or FoundationDB.

Every DB company - from giants like Oracle and MS to newcomers like Scylla and Cockroach - is pushing Cloud Service as their primary revenue model. At least for the growth of their business.

It's shocking to see them shut down the Cloud Service in favor of selling plain old on-prem Enterprise Support contracts. Hard to understand.

Anyone here a user of the cloud service? Was it just unable to compete against RDS, Aurora and the like? Too commodity?
