Metabase
Metabase's production guide moves its own settings off the default embedded file database onto PostgreSQL. This template attaches that PostgreSQL application database, so you go straight to connecting the data you want to analyze.
Metabase hosting on Varity costs $14.32 a month at most, with PostgreSQL included. No request, ingress or egress fees.
