Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL is a managed relational database service from AWS that hosts PostgreSQL, including specific community versions. It simplifies setting up, operating, and scaling PostgreSQL deployments on the cloud, managing administrative tasks like software installation, upgrades, storage, replication, and backups. It supports PostgreSQL 11 through 17 and allows building high-performance extensions with Trusted Language Extensions (TLE).
