Compute Autoscaling Report

Neon's autoscaling reduces compute usage by 2.4x and costs by 50% for production databases compared to provisioned platforms like RDS. The analysis shows production databases would experience 55 performance degradations per month on provisioned infrastructure even when sized at P99.5 + 20%. Read replicas achieve 4x compute efficiency, while scale-to-zero workloads cost 7.5x less than always-on provisioned alternatives. The report uses December 2025 data comparing actual Neon autoscaling patterns against AWS RDS rightsizing methodology.
