PostgreSQL
Managed PostgreSQL with extensions, high availability, and enterprise-grade reliability.
Pricing
Plans separate compute and additional disk space SKUs so you size CPU, memory, and disk independently as your schema and workload grow.

The relational database
with no tradeoffs.
PostgreSQL is the default choice for teams that need strong consistency, complex joins, rich extension support, and a mature query planner. It handles e-commerce backends, SaaS platforms, analytics pipelines, and geospatial workloads equally well.
Managed PostgreSQL removes the installation, configuration, and patching overhead. You connect with any postgres-compatible driver, run your migrations, and query as normal. We handle WAL archiving, replica management, failover, and version upgrades.
Plans scale compute, memory, and disk independently so you right-size for read-heavy or write-heavy workloads without over-provisioning either dimension.
Dedicated compute, ECC memory,
NVMe-backed storage.
Each PostgreSQL instance runs on dedicated vCPU and memory — no shared resources with adjacent database instances. DDR5 ECC memory protects shared_buffers and work_mem from hardware errors, keeping query cache state reliable under sustained load.
Data directories and WAL segments sit on NVMe SSD with block storage providing multi-drive redundancy per volume. Consistent sequential write throughput keeps replication lag tight during high-ingest periods. Disk scales independently from compute.
Point-in-time recovery uses continuous WAL archiving, so you can restore to any second within the retention window — not just the last daily snapshot.
What you get on Day One
The full PostgreSQL feature set on dedicated EPYC hardware with automatic operations.
PostgreSQL 14+
Latest stable versions with common extensions: PostGIS, pgvector, pg_cron, uuid-ossp, and more. Extension requests considered for new additions.
High availability
Synchronous streaming replication with automatic failover. Primary promotion on failure with no manual intervention required.
Point-in-time recovery
Continuous WAL archiving. Restore to any second within 30-day retention without relying solely on daily snapshots.
Connection pooling
PgBouncer included on all plans. Reduces connection overhead for high-concurrency applications without additional configuration.

- Engine
- PostgreSQL 17, 16, 15. Extension support includes pgvector, pg_repack, pg_audit, pg_cron, uuid-ossp, and standard contrib modules.
- Compute
- Dedicated vCPU and memory per instance. No shared resources with adjacent databases. Scales via SKU plans.
- Storage
- NVMe SSD-backed block storage. Data volume scales independently from compute, 1 GB to 1 TB. Separate WAL and backup repo volumes supported.
- Connection pooling
- PgBouncer included on all instances (3 replicas for HA). Transaction and session pooling modes configurable.
- High availability
- Streaming replication with 1–10 replicas. Automatic failover managed by the platform. Separate read-write (primary) and read-only (replica) endpoints. Pod anti-affinity spreads instances across nodes.
- Backups
- Full, differential, and incremental backups. Continuous WAL archiving for point-in-time recovery. Default schedule: weekly full backups. Supports local, S3-compatible, GCS, and Azure Blob storage destinations.
- Point-in-time recovery
- Restore to any second within the retention window (default 14 days). Supports restore to specific timestamp, backup ID, transaction ID, or timeline.
- Monitoring
- Built-in query analytics and performance monitoring enabled by default. Replication lag tracking and database health metrics included.
- Security
- TLS support available. SCRAM-SHA-256 authentication. Network policies for namespace-level isolation. Encrypted backup storage.
- Networking
- Public access via dedicated LoadBalancer IPs (separate read-write and read-only endpoints on port 5432). Private access via internal DNS.
