Production-ready PostgreSQL with full root access, automated backups, security hardening, and performance tuning on AWS.
Overview
This fully managed PostgreSQL solution delivers a production-ready, hardened database server on AWS, built on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. Every instance is pre-configured with security best practices, performance optimizations, and automated operations so you can focus on your application, not infrastructure.
Key Features
Automated Setup and Configuration On first login, an interactive setup script guides you through PostgreSQL configuration. It securely generates and stores credentials, configures authentication methods, and sets up firewall rules - all within minutes. No manual database administration required.
Built-in Backup and Recovery A pre-configured daily cron job automatically backs up all databases. Backups older than 7 days are automatically purged to manage disk space. The included restore script lets you recover any database from a backup file with a single command. For additional resilience, you can export SQL dumps to Amazon S3 or integrate with third-party backup tools.
Security Hardened The instance ships with security best practices applied out of the box: secure credential storage with root-only access, UFW firewall pre-configured to allow only SSH (22) and PostgreSQL (5432) from trusted sources, and the latest security patches applied. PostgreSQL is configured with md5 authentication and restricted pg_hba.conf by default.
Performance Optimized Shared buffers, work memory, effective cache size, and connection limits are tuned for the selected instance type. Whether you are running a small development database on t2.medium or a production workload on m5.xlarge, the configuration scales with your instance size.
Monitoring and Troubleshooting PostgreSQL logs are available for quick troubleshooting. You can integrate with CloudWatch, Grafana, or Prometheus for advanced monitoring and alerting. pg_stat_statements is pre-enabled for query performance analysis.
Use Cases Web applications and API backends requiring reliable relational data storage SaaS and multi-tenant applications with row-level security and schema isolation Geospatial applications using PostGIS extension for location-based queries Data warehousing and analytical workloads with advanced SQL capabilities Development and staging environments with production-like configuration Microservices architectures requiring ACID-compliant data persistence
Getting Started Launch the AMI from AWS Marketplace on your preferred instance type SSH into your instance and follow the interactive setup wizard Your PostgreSQL server is production-ready with backups, firewall, and tuning configured automatically

Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for a managed PostgreSQL database, billed through your AWS account. Pricing scales with the EC2 instance type you select, so the hourly rate reflects the compute size behind your database. Smaller instances like t3.micro cost less per hour, while large memory-, compute-, storage-, or accelerator-optimized instances cost more. You choose the instance that matches your workload's CPU, memory, and storage needs. Every instance includes the same managed service: provisioning, monitoring, backups, updates, and security patches. There are no separate tiers or commitment terms — you pay only for the hours you run.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Each instance type maps to an EC2 machine size with set CPU, memory, and storage. Your rate reflects that compute size running a managed PostgreSQL database. Perimattic handles provisioning, monitoring, daily backups, updates, and security patches on that instance. You select the size matching your workload's needs.
The hourly software charge meters running time only. When an instance is fully stopped, software charges stop accruing. Underlying AWS storage fees may still apply for stored data and backups even while the instance is off. You pay only for the hours the database runs.
Switching instance types changes only the hourly rate tied to that machine size. Larger memory-, compute-, storage-, or accelerator-optimized instances carry higher hourly rates. There is no automatic tier upgrade and no commitment. You control cost by choosing the instance size that fits your workload.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

Set Security Group Rules Allow: SSH (22) from your IP to access the instance. PostgreSQL (5432) only from trusted sources if remote access is required.
-
Connect to the Instance After launch, connect via SSH: ssh -i <your-key.pem> ubuntu@<Public-IP-of-Instance>
-
Initial Setup On first login, the automated script will: Prompt you to set a PostgreSQL 'postgres' user password (or generate one automatically). Ask if you want to enable remote PostgreSQL connections. Prompt you to configure firewall settings.
-
PostgreSQL Access Once setup is complete, access PostgreSQL with: psql -U postgres The postgres user password is securely stored in: /root/postgresql_postgres_password.txt
-
