Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL Instance Alternate Icon

Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL-compatible Edition allows you to create and manage a highly scalable and durable PostgreSQL-compatible database service on AWS. If your primary database instance fails, an Aurora PostgreSQL instance alternate provides a readily available secondary instance which automatically takes over, ensuring high availability and minimizing downtime. This secondary instance acts as a standby, continuously replicating data from the primary, so you can quickly recover in case of an outage or failure.
