Hello,

[AWS Health may periodically trigger reminder notifications about this communication if resources remain unresolved.]

You are receiving this message because you have one or more instances running Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL minor versions 13.11, 13.12, 13.13, 13.14, 14.9, 14.10, 14.11, 15.4, 15.5, 15.6, 16.1, or 16.2 that require your attention. Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL minor versions listed above will reach end of standard support on March 31, 2025 12:01 AM PDT. To learn more about the RDS policies related to major and minor version support, please refer to Database Engine Versions section in RDS FAQs [1].

Starting December 9, 2024, 12:01 AM PDT, you will not be able to create new RDS instances with PostgreSQL minor versions 13.11, 13.12, 13.13, 13.14, 14.9, 14.10, 14.11, 15.4, 15.5, 15.6, 16.1, or 16.2 from either the AWS Console or the CLI. RDS will upgrade your databases running versions listed above to PostgreSQL 13.18, 14.15, 15.10, 16.6, or higher during a scheduled maintenance window between March 31, 2025 12:01 AM PDT and April 30, 2025 12:01 AM PDT. Starting on April 30, 2025 12:01 AM PDT, any RDS for PostgreSQL databases still running in the affected minor versions will be upgraded to 13.18, 14.15, 15.10, 16.6, or higher regardless of instances scheduled maintenance window.

We recommend that you take action and upgrade [2] your Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL databases running minor versions 13.11 to 13.14, 14.9 to 14.11, 15.4 to 15.6, and 16.1 to 16.2 to versions 13.18, 14.15, 15.10, 16.6, or higher before March 31, 2025 12:01 AM PDT.
