PostgreSQL 14
Here we are, at a fantastic version 14, and still no sign of an MySQL AB-like company able to provide support and extensions to a great piece of open source software. There's a few small ones, yes, but nothing at the billion dollar size.
I am still unable to understand why.

I thought this is what Enterprise DB was? Or am I misinformed? I concede that is indeed a possibility.

Which extensions do you think would be enough of a value add to support a billion dollar company?

Microsoft and Citus are "a little" over a billion?

I hope you don’t think Microsoft/Citus is going to continue to support PostgreSQL installations on anything other than Azure.
This is ask about the battle of the clouds for them.

Doesn't matter what I think, it's an option though.
