       | feature. It is definitely worth mentioning, at least for some
       | unfortunate people who are stuck with SQL Server, but would like
       | to use Postgres as all others do. When you can use BCP or
       | OPENQUERY to move your data to Postgres, instead of COPY - this
       | can make a big difference for some of us.

       | closer to reality if they enable HA.

       | contrast, feels lightning fast for my workloads.

         | graphql api, oauth integration, db migrations, some user
         | authorization story for free is what i'm looking for from
         | supabase.

       | They could test multiple datasets to see who handles large data
