EnterpiseDB, the world-wide provider of enterprise-class products and PostgreSQL based services, announced today that the Postgres Plus Cloud Database, a DBaaS for PostgreSQL databases, will be available through Amazon Web Services.  The big selling point of this release is its "elasticity" because of the ability to build flexible database infrastructures on most any browser, while also providing a new alternative for transitioning applications designed for Oralce to a cloud environment.

The full release features include:

Postgres Plus Cloud Database easily provisions PostgreSQL and Postgres Plus Advanced Server databases (with Oracle compatibility) in single instances, high availability clusters, or development sandboxes for Database-as-a-Service environments. The self-healing high availability clusters are setup in minutes with high-speed binary replication, automatic read and write load balancing, optional auto-scaling, scheduled backups, and automatic failover. You can also use cluster replicas for disaster recovery purposes and even cloning production data to programming sandboxes for new application development or testing.
