Identifying Your Version of Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL

Amazon Aurora includes certain features that are general to Aurora and available to all Aurora DB clusters. Aurora includes other features that are specific to a particular database engine that Aurora supports. These features are available only to those Aurora DB clusters that use that database engine, such as Aurora PostgreSQL.

An Aurora database has two version numbers; the Aurora version number and the database engine version number.

To get the Aurora version number, see Identifying Your Amazon Aurora Version.
You can get the database engine version number for an Aurora PostgreSQL DB instance by querying for the SERVER_VERSION runtime parameter. To get the database engine version number, use the following query.
