Methodology

Managed Postgres instance provisioning, measured from create-DB API call to the database accepting a connection. Includes teardown timing for completeness.

All data is collected via ProvisioningIQ — a continuous benchmarking platform that runs synthetic provisioning tests and publishes the results. No estimates, no vendor data; every number above came from a real provisioning attempt.
