,

Redgate Monitor is growing to include more than just Microsoft SQL Server monitoring. We added PostgreSQL support in 2023 and that continues to grow. This post looks at a few changes we’ve added.

PostgreSQL Monitoring

When we added PostgreSQL support to Redgate Monitor, I assumed that we could monitor most types of PostgreSQL installs. I was very wrong. Apparently everyone that’s forked or used PostgreSQL in different ways has changed how a DBA might need to monitor the system. At first we monitored on-premises installs only, but that’s grown.

AWS

We now support RDS. If you search for bluebox, you’ll see a PostgreSQL RDS instance. If you click in the card, you can see the workload, and more specifics on this RDS database.

We also support Aurora, if you use that version. Search for pizza and these cards appear, the right one being Aurora. This is an AWS Aurora database, based on PostgreSQL.

Azure

We also support Azure Flex PostgreSQL database. Search for the pgtips database and you’ll see this card.

If you’re in the cloud with AWS or Azure, we have some PostgreSQL monitoring available for you, with more coming all the time.
