You can now create HAQM Aurora database clusters with up to 128TB of storage. The new storage limit is available for both the MySQL- and PostgreSQL-compatible editions of HAQM Aurora. Previously, Aurora database instances supported 64TB of storage.

With an increased storage limit of 128TB, you’re less likely to reach the limit when you scale up your application on a single HAQM Aurora database cluster. This means you won’t need to delete data or to split the database across multiple instances. Learn more by visiting the HAQM Aurora Storage and Reliability documentation.  

128TB support is available with Aurora MySQL engine version 1.23, compatible with MySQL 5.6, with engine version 2.09, compatible with MySQL 5.7, and with Aurora PostgreSQL 9.6.17, 10.12 and 11.7.

HAQM Aurora is a MySQL and PostgreSQL-compatible relational database built for the cloud, that combines the performance and availability of traditional enterprise databases with the simplicity and cost-effectiveness of open source databases.
