> they can shut down abruptly leaving you in the bind

"We understand that this is going to be a disruptive change to many and are fully committed to working with you to help you migrate off the service over the next several months."

Yes. We will work with you to help you, does not mean it is not going to be disruptive.

Changing database technology is hard. Moving off from cloud to self serviced option is also hard.

It is 2 months to switch to a totally different database with a totally different query language. That is not easy even if you get some "help" from a company shutting down.
