Hosted Postgres provider that offers sharding


Hi HN,

Does anyone know a DBaaS provider that provides Postrges clusters with the option to shard them down the line? Most providers I currently know don't offer features beyond replication and connection pooling.

Would love any help, thanks in advance.

I think Azure offers sharding via Citus: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cosmos-db/postgresql...

Then, there's the Postgres compatible offerings like CockroachDB and Yugabyte that do sharding transparently.
