Services
Amazon RDS adds new events reporting the cause of an Amazon RDS Multi-AZ automated database failover so that you can detect and respond to your outage faster. You can view these [failover reasons](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/Concepts.MultiAZ.html) in the event log.
Amazon RDS Multi-AZ deployments provide enhanced availability and durability for RDS database (DB) instances, making them a natural fit for production database workloads. Amazon RDS detects and automatically recovers from the most common failure scenarios for Multi-AZ deployments so that you can resume database operations as quickly as possible without administrative intervention. Amazon RDS automatically performs a failover in the event of any of the following:
* Loss of availability in primary Availability Zone
* Loss of network connectivity to primary DB instance
* Compute unit failure on primary DB instance
* Storage failure on primary DB instance
Additionally, this update also reports new events on planned failover due actions such as scaling compute resources or applying updates during a maintenance window.
Amazon RDS makes it easy to set up, operate, and scale a relational database in the cloud. Learn more about event notifications from your database instances from the [Amazon RDS User Guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/USER%5FEvents.html). See [Amazon RDS Pricing](/rds/postgresql/pricing/) for pricing details and regional availability. Create or update a fully managed Amazon RDS database in the [Amazon RDS Management Console](https://console.aws.amazon.com/rds/home).
