Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL

Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL is generally available in the DataSquares connection wizard. Managed Postgres on AWS RDS — connect like Postgres.

  1. In DataSquares, open Data Sources and choose Add data source.

  2. Pick Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL in the connector picker (search or browse by category).

  3. Fill in the connection details below, then test the connection and save.

Field What to enter
Host The hostname or IP address of your Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL server.
Port Prefilled with 5432 (the Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL default) — change it if your server listens elsewhere.
Database The database to connect to.
Username / Password Credentials for a user with read access to the tables you want to analyze.
TLS Enable if your server requires an encrypted connection.

Grant the connection user read-only access — DataSquares only ever reads from your source.
