Overview
Elevarq Signals is an open-source (BSD-3-Clause) diagnostic collector for PostgreSQL that runs entirely inside your own AWS environment. It connects to a managed database, collects a structured, read-only diagnostic snapshot on a schedule, and keeps every byte local — no telemetry, and no diagnostic-data egress to Elevarq.
Your data stays in your account
- The only outbound calls are the cloud-authentication and TLS requests you configure, made to your own AWS services.
- Snapshots are written locally and exported as a portable archive for downstream analysis.
Read-only by design
- Read-only access is enforced by three independent layers.
- Unsafe roles (superuser, replication) are blocked before collection begins.
Passwordless onboarding on Amazon RDS and Aurora
- Connect with RDS IAM authentication — no long-lived database password to store or rotate.
- Or use a cloud secret store: AWS Secrets Manager or AWS Systems Manager Parameter Store.
- Every connection uses verify-full TLS and a least-privilege pg_monitor role.
Production-ready packaging
- Signed, multi-architecture container (linux/amd64 and linux/arm64), shipped with an SBOM.
- Helm chart for Amazon EKS with liveness/readiness probes, least-privilege security contexts, and a persistent volume for local snapshots.
Highlights
- Read-only by design: three independent enforcement layers, with unsafe roles (superuser, replication) blocked before collection starts
- Passwordless onboarding to Amazon RDS and Aurora via RDS IAM (or a cloud secret store) over verify-full TLS with a least-privilege pg_monitor role
- Local-first: no telemetry and no diagnostic-data egress to Elevarq; signed multi-arch container and Helm chart for Amazon EKS

Container image (Amazon ECS / Fargate)
- Amazon ECS
Container image
Containers are lightweight, portable execution environments that wrap server application software in a filesystem that includes everything it needs to run. Container applications run on supported container runtimes and orchestration services, such as Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) or Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS). Both eliminate the need for you to install and operate your own container orchestration software by managing and scheduling containers on a scalable cluster of virtual machines.
Version release notes
Elevarq Signals 1.0.0 (GA). Read-only PostgreSQL diagnostic collector - the same cosign-signed image and chart as the Helm delivery. Passwordless authentication (Amazon RDS IAM, Azure Entra, GCP Cloud SQL IAM), no telemetry, and no diagnostic data sent to Elevarq. Release notes: https://github.com/Elevarq/Signals/releases/tag/v1.0.0

Usage instructions
-
Authenticate Docker to the AWS Marketplace registry: aws ecr get-login-password --region us-east-1 | docker login --username AWS --password-stdin 709825985650.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com
-
Pull the image: docker pull 709825985650.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/elevarq/elevarq-signals:1.0.0
-
Amazon ECS / Fargate task definition:
- Use the image URI above. The container runs as non-root (uid 10001) with a read-only root filesystem.
- Supply PostgreSQL connection config via a mounted /etc/signals/signals.yaml or SIGNALS_TARGET_* environment variables. Amazon RDS IAM authentication is recommended (no password stored).
- Provide the API token via the SIGNALS_API_TOKEN environment variable, sourced from AWS Secrets Manager or SSM Parameter Store in the task definition secrets block - never hard-coded.
-
Durable snapshot storage: the Fargate task filesystem is ephemeral. Mount an Amazon EFS volume at /data (or an EBS/bind volume on EC2-backed ECS) so exported snapshots survive task restarts.
-
Verify: run signalsctl collect now, then signalsctl export. Full configuration: https://elevarq.com/docs/signals
