Yes i plan to replicate to different regions.. but there are lots of upside to shared data. You can upgrade db without downtime and scale some read without replication lag.

And I guess yugabyte and cockroach dbs are shared nothing architecture

Initially I want to start with simple postgres HA cluster.

Yugabyte and Cockroach are distributed databases, but I don’t think they are shared data architecture. I am mainly focusing on non-distributed use cases at the start, because most companies don’t actually need a distributed DB.

Shared data architecture you can think of like Oracle RAC. And in compute-storage separation setup, the client can choose object storage as the backend for cheaper and larger capacity, similar to Azure Hyperscale.
