Amazon CloudWatch Database Insights now supports self-managed PostgreSQL

Today, AWS announces support for self-managed PostgreSQL databases in Amazon CloudWatch Database Insights. Using CloudWatch Database Insights, you can now monitor your self-managed PostgreSQL instances running on Amazon EC2, alongside Amazon RDS and Amazon Aurora, to give you a complete view of your database fleet in a single console.

Amazon CloudWatch Database Insights is a database observability solution that provides a curated experience to help you monitor database fleet health, diagnose issues, and resolve performance bottlenecks. With support for self-managed databases, you use the Amazon CloudWatch agent to collect health and performance data from your self-managed PostgreSQL instances. Your database appears in the Database Insights fleet view with live performance data, including database load, wait event analysis, query-level statistics, and host metrics. Monitor and troubleshoot your self-managed PostgreSQL instances using the same familiar Database Insights console and workflows you already use for your AWS-managed databases.

Amazon CloudWatch Database Insights support for self-managed PostgreSQL is available in all AWS Commercial Regions. To get started, see Monitoring Self-Managed Databases in the Amazon CloudWatch User Guide. For pricing details, see the Amazon CloudWatch pricing page.
