Re: Aurora PostgreSQL Support

[Prince Pathria <prince.pathria@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

One of the issues I faced in the past is limited(not expandable) tmp storage. If your query is huge, it may fail.

AWS docs don't tell such things explicitly so have intensive testing on Aurora before planning to migrate.
RDS seems to be a safe choice.

Quoting from the doc - "Each Aurora DB instance contains a limited amount of local storage that is determined by the DB instance class. Typically, the amount of local storage is twice the amount of memory on the DB instance."

Happy to help :)

Hi Listeres,

I am looking for suggestions from people who have experience with Aurora PostgreSQL. 

I work as a database admin in my company. We are migrating some of our Oracle databases to Aurora PostgreSQL. Since this falls under the RDS category I understand that the majority of the admin work will be managed by AWS team itself. But from a business unit perspective, they are looking for support from my team with regards to general BU work and performance and tuning. Can someone shed some light on possible areas which we can support in the RDS Aurora PostgreSQL world?

Thanks in Advance!

Thanks,

Goti
