AWS just announced Aurora DSQL - a purpose built, postgres-compatible serverless database and take it from me - it's amazing.

I've had a few months to play with it (more soon), but it's truly the single most exciting launch I've seen from AWS in a while.

You've gotta try it

Aurora DSQL uses most of the SQL layer (parser, planner, optimizer, etc) from PostgreSQL itself. The storage layer, concurrency control, replication, etc are ground-up.
