Context

When running PostgreSQL databases managed through Porter, you may encounter connection limits that impact your application's performance. Amazon RDS Proxy can help manage database connections more efficiently and prevent connection exhaustion.

Answer

You can enable RDS Proxy for your Porter-managed PostgreSQL database. The key requirement is that the RDS Proxy must be set up in the same Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) as your database.

This setup will not interfere with Porter's database management capabilities, making it a safe solution for handling connection limits.
