EdgeDB is very close to be production ready. We will release 1.0 in a month or two and we're based on Postgres, so the hardest part of storing the data reliably is there already.
EdgeQL queries are typically way shorter than corresponding SQL equivalents. You can see comparisons and benchmarks here in this blog post: https://www.edgedb.com/blog/edgedb-1-0-alpha-1
Authentication currently is very basic. We plan to have a relatively short release cycle, so in 3-4 months after 1.0 we'll have more robust access control, including read/write policies of individual types and their properties/links.
