Micro$oft’s Cosmos DB, they call it the “Unified AI database” is so cool, that it takes 10 minutes to fetch ~5000 records at the size of less than 1 KB each and I can only guess how much it will cost.
In any FOSS SQL database, make that < 100 milliseconds and zero pennies.
But yes, there is a generation of developers that doesn’t even know about SQL anymore or finds it “arcane”. They gladly pay for this error with their pocket.
