The short version

  • Only Supabase has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Supabase free tier projects auto-pause after 1 week of inactivity; Zabbix Cloud billed by NVPS (new values per second) rather than by number of monitored hosts, so cost scales with metric volume: Nano starts at $50/month for 50 NVPS and 2xLarge reaches $5,000/month for 10,000 NVPS
