Posted on: Feb 11, 2020

Following the announcement of updates to the PostgreSQL database, we have updated Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL to support PostgreSQL minor versions 11.6, 10.11, 9.6.16, and 9.5.20. This release contains bug fixes and improvements done by the PostgreSQL community. 

This release adds the PLProfiler extension, which allows you to create performance profiles of PL/pgSQL functions and stored procedures, and upgrades pgTap to version 1.1.0. This release also allows pg_prewarm in shared_preload_libraries for PostgreSQL 11 to automatically warm up the cache at startup of the database.

Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL makes it easy to set up, operate, and scale PostgreSQL deployments in the cloud. Learn more about upgrading your database instances from the Amazon RDS User Guide. See Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL Pricing for pricing details and regional availability.
