Decoupled storage and compute

Nikolay and Michael discuss a listener question — about products that take Postgres and transform it to something that decouples compute from storage (RDS Aurora, GC AlloyDB, Neon etc.) and whether they see something like this landing upstream in the medium term.Here are some links to some things they mentioned:Amazon Aurora https://aws.amazon.com/rds/aurora/Google Cloud AlloyDB for PostgreSQL https://cloud.google.com/alloydbNeon https://neon.tech/ Google Cloud Spanner https://cloud.google.com/spannerIs Aurora PostgreSQL really faster and cheaper than RDS PostgreSQL?
