Postgres has some less robust tooling, at least both of these carry the "experimental" tag:

Show HN: Zero-downtime PostgreSQL migrations for Ruby on Rails
This is very cool! I no longer work on Rails on daily basis, but would have loved to have this.
I built something similar called `pg-osc` / `pg-online-schema-change` for PostgreSQL workloads. It does zero downtime migrations using triggers and shadow table.

Also love that this is written in Ruby :). Going to check it out on some side projects.

A MySQL compatible database engine written in pure Go
With Vitess likely merging a lot of its binaries into a single unified binary: https://github.com/vitessio/vitess/issues/7471#issuecomment-...
... it would be a wild future if Vitess replaced the underlying MySQL engine with this as long as the performance is good enough.

The challenges of supporting foreign key constraints
Thank you for the compliment!
We recently started adding support for CTEs in Vitess! You can check out https://github.com/vitessio/vitess/pull/14321 if you want to see some technical details of the implementation.
For now, we have added preliminary support by converting them to derived tables internally, but we believe that we need to make CTEs first-class citizens themselves of query planning. Once we make that change, we can look towards supporting recursive CTEs.
This however will take some time, but then, all good things do!

PlanetScale Scaler Pro
This is great news. I strolled around https://github.com/vitessio/vitess/issues/12967.
Are there any public discussions of more trade-offs vitess has to make to enable fks?

What is the best database technology to use to create a new chat app today?
MySQL + Vitess I noticed Slack gets by using MySQL because they're using Vites. From Slack's post (https://slack.engineering/scaling-datastores-at-slack-with-vitess/) it seems like they choose Vites because it facilitated a smooth transition because it's built on top of MySQL.
