Amazon AWS Aurora DSQL

What is Amazon Aurora DSQL? - Amazon Aurora DSQL

Amazon Aurora DSQL is a serverless, distributed, PostgreSQL-compatible relational database service designed for transactional (ACID) workloads.

• High Availability & Active-Active Architecture: Delivers 99.99% availability in a single Region and 99.999% in multi-Region setups with active-active concurrent read/write operations and automatic failover.
  
  
• Fully Serverless Operations: Compute, I/O, and storage auto-scale dynamically with your workload, eliminating manual provisioning, patching, and maintenance downtime.
  
  
• Strong Consistency: Provides snapshot isolation, ACID transactions, and synchronous replication across Availability Zones and Regions without eventual-consistency lag.
  
  
• PostgreSQL Compatibility: Native compatibility with PostgreSQL version 16 allows developers to use standard PostgreSQL tools (such as psql), ORMs, and drivers.
  
  
• Multi-Region Cluster Support: Supports active-active multi-Region clusters within specific geographic Region sets (North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific). Cross-continent multi-Region clusters are currently not supported.
