Today, AWS announces Amazon Aurora Limitless Database, which enables you to scale your Amazon Aurora clusters to millions of write transactions per second and manage petabytes of data. With this new capability, you can scale your relational database workloads on Aurora beyond the limits of a single Aurora writer instance without needing to create custom application logic or manage multiple databases.
Aurora 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 Limitless Database offers capabilities such as distributed query planning and transaction management, eliminating the need for you to create custom solutions or manage multiple databases to scale. As your workloads increase, Aurora 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 Limitless Database is now available in limited preview for Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL-Compatible Edition in the following AWS Regions: US East (Ohio), US East (N. Virginia), US West (Oregon), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), and Europe (Ireland).
