Postgresql as database (or support sqlserver emulated on aurora - aws babelfish)

We need support on aws aurora or aws sqlserver emulated by aurora (babelfish) as databases for sterling. Aurora is growing more and more and offers several benefits which make it very attractive for companies like ours. In our case, we have moved away from all sql server and oracle to aurora without any problem and we are saving thousands of dollars for licensing.

    PostgreSQL is also an option for GCP CloudSQL which would appeal to customers whose preferred cloud is GCP.
