Hey there,
does someone of you know some decent DBaaS to host temporary databases for testing purpose?
Or what is your way of developing new applications (non-business related services)? Do you run your database locally? Do you have your own servers running?
Thanks for a quick answer. It might help me with my current project.

Running a database is really simple, especially if its just for development. I usually use docker-compose, so its just a matter of writing the compose file, installing docker-compose and running
docker-compose up -d
. Here is an example.https://github.com/dessalines/lemmy/blob/master/docker/prod/docker-compose.yml
If you’re going to test, do it locally. I like Postgres, that’s what this uses as well.
I wouldn’t be worried about space. The entire english wikipedia text DB is ~
50 GB
.A testing database is usually like 10 MB or so, just FYI.
