I think probably a pluggable storage backend is the best move. For example, any cloud hosted instance could use a native document storage format such as dynamodb, which is often quite cheap or free for small use-cases.
Bit of a pain to store in Dynamo, though. You'd need to write a bunch of different views, I think.
One comment thread makes sense as a partition, but listing threads is going to be awkward, and search is basically a no-no.
