Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL Enterprise Plus edition delivers enhanced read and write performance, and is ideal for applications that require maximum performance. This edition offers the following enhancements:
Improved read performance using data cache: Data cache leverages a fast, local SSD to store data pages that are read frequently. You can get up to three times improvement in read performance compared to reading from a persistent disk. Data cache is an optional feature and can be enabled during instance creation or after the instance has been created.
Enhanced write performance: Cloud SQL Enterprise Plus edition delivers up to two times the improvement in write latency. This makes it suitable for write-intensive applications requiring low latency and high throughput.
Engine autotuning: autotune engine configurations to match the capabilities of the underlying instance platform.
Cloud SQL Enterprise Plus edition provides the following major availability enhancements:
Advanced disaster recovery (DR): you can simplify recovery and fallback processes after you perform cross-region failover. With advanced DR, you can:
Choose a cross-region disaster recovery (DR) replica
Perform replica failover
Restore your original deployment by using zero data loss switchover
For more information, see Advanced disaster recovery (DR) and Use advanced disaster recovery (DR).
Near-zero downtime: with Cloud SQL Enterprise Plus edition, you can maintain near-zero downtime for your instance when you perform any of the following management tasks:
Perform or simulate a planned maintenance update event on a standalone primary instance
Enable or disable data cache
Scale up the compute size (vCPU, memory) of your Cloud SQL instance as many times you like
Scale down the compute size (vCPU, memory) of your Cloud SQL instance once every three hours
Note: If you scale down your instance more than once during a three-hour period, then only the first scale down event benefits from near-zero downtime. Subsequent scale down events experience regular downtime.Perform an in-place upgrade to Cloud SQL Enterprise Plus edition
