Why RDS for PostgreSQL?

Custom Deployment and DR Solutions

Custom Deployment and DR Solutions

  • Use primary/standby deployment to achieve an overall availability of at least 99.95% and an RTO of less than 60 seconds. A switchover takes only a few seconds.

  • Enable real-time synchronization between primary and standby DB instances to guarantee an RPO of zero.

  • Use Elastic Volume Service (EVS) disks to achieve data reliability of 99.9999999%.

  • Create read replicas as needed to reduce the load on your primary DB instance. RDS will route read requests to the read replicas.

Professional Database O&M Platform

Professional Database O&M Platform

  • Monitor instance statuses and metrics in real time on the RDS console, and receive alerts for events that occur in your instance.

  • It takes only a few steps to back up and restore data, create accounts and databases, query logs, tune parameters, and perform more operations on the console.

Support for 90+ Extensions

Support for 90+ Extensions

  • More than 90 extensions are supported, including the widely used PostGIS and Zhparser.

  • These extensions enable RDS to handle geographic and spatial data, support data synchronization between heterogeneous databases, and configure scheduled tasks.

15+ Security Certifications

15+ Security Certifications

  • RDS helps you meet core security and compliance requirements.

  • RDS has earned over 15 security certifications such as ISO 20000, CSA STAR, and CCSP Level 3.

Less Expensive Than On-premises Databases

Less Expensive Than On-premises Databases

  • Using on-premises databases, you have to invest heavily in the early stages. For using RDS, there is no hardware or software to buy.

  • If you host your own database using ECSs, unlike using RDS, you must purchase, install, and upgrade database software separately. Time-consuming administrative tasks are simplified with the RDS DBA Assistant.

Migrate with Ease Using RDS for PostgreSQL

High Concurrency: E-Commerce
Scenario

RDS for PostgreSQL is an excellent choice to develop web and mobile applications upon its rich feature set, extension ecosystem, and native ability to handle high-concurrency scenarios.

Advantages
Excellent Performance

It maintains excellent performance in high concurrency and heavy load scenarios.

Stable Development Environment

As an object-relational database, RDS for PostgreSQL supports more complex data types and allows objects to inherit properties. Embedded analysis and recursive functions help simplify code and speed up development.

Object Storage Service
Reliability: Finance
Scenario

RDS for PostgreSQL uses Multi-Version Concurrency Control (MVCC) to ensure data consistency. Data is synchronized between primary and standby DB instances to prevent data loss. Cold data is stored in OBS, a less expensive option than storing historical data in database storage.

Advantages
MVCC

Transactions are isolated from each other, complying with the properties of Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability (ACID).

Low Synchronization Delay

The primary/standby synchronization latency is just a few milliseconds, ensuring data consistency.

Geospatial Data: Location-based Apps
Scenario

RDS for PostgreSQL supports the PostGIS extension for location-based applications. It provides excellent spatial performance with features including space objects, indexes, operation functions, and operators.

Advantages
Spatial Data Types

RDS supports various types of spatial data including points, lines, planes, grids, and three-dimensional data.

Efficient Spatial Analysis

RDS provides efficient spatial analysis functions and works with OBS for unlimited object storage.

Simple Spatial Operations

The code complexity for location applications is reduced, making spatial operations easier.

Continuous Service Innovation with Millions of Customers

Continuous Service Innovation with Millions of Customers

First Automobile Works (FAW) INCA
FAW Speeds Up Intelligent Transformation with Huawei Cloud RDS

FAW uses Huawei Cloud RDS for MySQL and RDS for PostgreSQL to store their user data, vehicle data, configuration data, and analytic data. RDS ensures almost zero delay of primary/standby replication, and no data is lost even when FAW systems are heavily loaded.

INCA Designs a SaaS Pharmaceutical System Using Huawei Cloud RDS and DRS

INCA migrated its pharmaceutical system to RDS for PostgreSQL using Data Replication Service (DRS), with no impact on services and zero data loss. After the migration, the disk I/O performance doubled and the database administration efficiency improved by 70%.
