Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Amazon's new Aurora DSQL is a serverless, globally distributed database that is highly available, multi-regional, Postgres compatible, and fast. This post looks over its features to see if the product works as advertised. Aurora DSQL is still very new - the service is only available in two US regions at the moment. It is still missing a lot of features from Postgres and uses an unusual authentication method that involves using a URL-like token to connect to the database.
