My organization is trying to push Postgres as well, but running some basic
numbers, it wouldn't save my organization any money, just transfer the
costs to a different account.
It also doesn't even address the added costs of migrating every single Apex
application into a whole new environment, with entirely new code. With any
luck I'll be retiring next year and my tax dollars can either spent on
keeping things working, or taking them all offline for several years while
they get rewritten in something harder to maintain, and just as expensive
to run.
