"Azure Database for PostgreSQL"

Postgresql database for Azure?




No, this is a PaaS offering that includes high-availability, fault-tolerance and disaster recovery, and uses a customized version of PostgreSQL behind the scenes.


We are using community edition of PostgreSQL and the same PostgreSQL we all love. /works at Microsoft and the PostgreSQL managed service/

To me (and, i think, in general product naming conventions), "Azure for Postgres" would mean some sort of azure service plugin that you can add to any arbitrary postgres installation. "Postgres for Azure" would mean Postgres support on Azure's PaaS.
