Aiven for PostgreSQL Overview

What is Aiven for PostgreSQL?

Aiven for PostgreSQL is a fully managed, scalable PostgreSQL service. It is full-featured, and backed by a 99.99% SLA. You can launch a fully operational PostgreSQL cluster in the cloud and region of your choice in minutes - using the Aiven web console or programmatically via Aiven’s API, CLI, Terraform provider or Kubernetes operator. You'll have access to premium features, such as Point in Time Restore, database forking, connection pooling, and more. And you can use over 70 PostgreSQL extensions. With Aiven for PostgreSQL, you don’t need to worry about taking backups or applying maintenance updates. All this is done automatically - with no downtime. You can upgrade to a new version, increase the storage of your cluster, expand to new regions or migrate to a different cloud, with a click of a mouse. Data is encrypted at rest and in transit, and clusters are always run on dedicated virtual machines. The service is ISO27001, SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR, CCPA and PCI/DSS compliant.

What do you like best about Aiven Platform?

We have great support and engagement from Aiven's engineers and customer support. They have gone above and beyond helping us with tests for disaster recovery and HA testing. We primarily use Aiven's Postgres offering, and they support tons of extensions and foreign data wrappers. Their datadog integration is turn key and provides good metrics out-of-the-box. I've really enjoyed working with their CLI tool and APIs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aiven Platform?

I feel like there is still room for improvement with their HA. A lot of it is DNS-based, so for our workload and applications, we still have some problems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Aiven Platform?

As I developer, I'm proficient with interacting with databases and integrating them with our custom apps. However, I don't have a background in database hosting and management. Aiven bridges that gap and allows me to focus on what I'm good at, while handling the areas I lack experience with.

There have only been a few minor hiccups over the past few years, and their customer support stepped in to help quickly resolve the issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Aiven Platform?

Support can be somewhat pushy in regards to upgrading to the next tier of service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Aiven Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our small business relies on custom apps to optimize our workflow, but we don't have any staff with an extensive database management background. Aiven handles that part for us, so we can simply use the database without worrying about a server, maintanence, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
