Amazon Aurora features

For Aurora PostgreSQL and Aurora MySQL

Amazon Aurora is a fully managed relational database service that combines the performance and availability of high-end commercial databases with the simplicity and cost-effectiveness of open source databases. Aurora is comprised of three engines: PostgreSQL, MySQL, and DSQL. Both Aurora PostgreSQL and Aurora MySQL offer full open source compatibility, allowing existing applications and tools to run without requiring modification.

New AWS customers can get started with Aurora PostgreSQL serverless at no cost through the AWS Free Tier, which provides up to $200 in credits to explore Aurora and other eligible AWS services.
