* PostgreSQL Community retired major version 11 and won't be releasing new minor versions. Amazon RDS released this minor version with critical security patches and bug fixes for PostgreSQL databases that are covered under Amazon RDS Extended Support. For more information about these minor versions, see Amazon RDS Extended Support updates. For more information about Amazon RDS Extended Support, see Using Amazon RDS Extended Support.

Minor versions can reach end of standard support before corresponding major versions do. For example, minor version 14.9 will reach its end of standard support date in March 2025, while major version 14. will reach its end of standard support on 12 November 2026. RDS will support additional 14.* minor versions that the PostgreSQL community releases between these dates.
