Aiven for PostgreSQLĀ® major version in-place upgrade

What's this blog post about?

PostgreSQL users often hesitate to upgrade due to the downtime involved, but Aiven has made major PG upgrades easy with their in-place upgrades that take seconds or a minute at most. The process involves automatic checks for upgrade possibility, shutting down standby nodes, upgrading primary node, creating full backup, and creating new standby nodes. Users can initiate the process through Aiven Console by simply clicking a button.
