Following the announcement of [updates to the PostgreSQL database](https://www.postgresql.org/about/news/2038/) by the open source community, we have updated [Amazon Aurora with PostgreSQL compatibility](/rds/aurora/) to support PostgreSQL versions 11.9, 10.14, and 9.6.19\. These releases contain bug fixes and improvements by the PostgreSQL community. You can initiate a minor version upgrade manually by modifying your DB cluster, or you can enable the "Auto minor version upgrade" option when creating or modifying a DB cluster. Doing so means that your DB cluster is automatically upgraded after AWS tests and approves the new version. For more details, see [Automatic Minor Version Upgrades for PostgreSQL](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/AuroraUserGuide/USER%5FUpgradeDBInstance.PostgreSQL.html#USER%5FUpgradeDBInstance.PostgreSQL.Minor). Please review the [Aurora documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/AuroraUserGuide/AuroraPostgreSQL.Updates.20180305.html) to learn more. [Amazon Aurora](/rds/aurora/) combines the performance and availability of high-end commercial databases with the simplicity and cost-effectiveness of open source databases. It provides up to three times better performance than the typical PostgreSQL database, together with increased scalability, durability, and security. For more information, please visit [the Amazon Aurora product page](/rds/aurora/).
