Why host PostgreSQL on-premises or on your own infrastructure?

Hosting PostgreSQL on-premises or on your own VPS/dedicated server gives you complete control over your application and data. You can customize the server environment, optimize performance, and ensure compliance with your organization's security requirements.

On-premises hosting allows you to:

  • Maintain full control over your data and infrastructure
  • Customize the environment to your exact needs
  • Meet specific compliance and security requirements
  • Scale your application without cloud service restrictions
  • Significantly reduce hosting costs compared to managed services

By managing your own infrastructure, you can avoid the recurring costs associated with cloud services and optimize your resource allocation to meet your specific needs. This typically results in substantial cost savings for your application.
