Enabling storage autoscaling in AWS RDS PostgreSQL can produces downtime?


I want to enable storage autoscaling by the first time in a AWS RDS PostgreSQL instance.

Someone knows or have some documentation to clarify if this requires downtime? i can't found any articles or documentation about explicitly "enabling autoscaling by the first time"

Thanks in advance.

Solution

  • From Amazon RDS now supports Storage Auto Scaling:

    RDS Storage Auto Scaling automatically scales storage capacity in response to growing database workloads, with zero downtime.

    The message you highlight suggests that downtime would only be caused by other changes in the "pending modifications queue" (eg a requested change of instance type).
