Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL Limitless Database now supports PostgreSQL 16.6

Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL Limitless Database is now available with PostgreSQL version 16.6 compatibility. This release contains product improvements and bug fixes made by the PostgreSQL community, along with Aurora Limitless-specific security and feature improvements such as support for GIN operator classes with B-tree behavior (btree_gin) and support for DISCARD.

Aurora PostgreSQL Limitless Database makes it easy for you to scale your relational database workloads by providing a serverless endpoint that automatically distributes data and queries across multiple Amazon Aurora Serverless instances while maintaining the transactional consistency of a single database. Aurora PostgreSQL Limitless Database offers capabilities such as distributed query planning and transaction management, removing the need for you to create custom solutions or manage multiple databases to scale. As your workloads increase, Aurora PostgreSQL Limitless Database adds additional compute resources while staying within your specified budget, so there is no need to provision for peak, and compute automatically scales down when demand is low.

Aurora PostgreSQL Limitless Database is available in the following AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (Oregon), Asia Pacific (Hong Kong), Asia Pacific (Singapore), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (Ireland), and Europe (Stockholm).
