While I've been building Eden, the autonomous observability layer for AI agents that goes the step further, during my time developing the MVP, the main thing that's been killing me is provider choices. With an observability platform, our storage is key. Originally, after deciding to use Clickhouse for OLAP and Postgres for OLTP, I chose Clickhouse Cloud and Fly. Then, after further research, I had to weigh up speed vs long term cost, and do further research, and I landed on Tinybird instead of Clickhouse Cloud, which is in my opinion an all around better option, and Neon instead of Fly, long term more expensive, but during early stages and development, it should be cheaper for prototyping and testing. Then, deployment of the backend on Northflank free, frontend on Vercel, and the whole deployment system becomes complicated, but for now, with limited funds and trying to ship fast, it's what I had to do. Have any of you had similar struggles?
(P.S Eden is looking for early stage beta testers, please let me know if you're interested)
