Compliant databases for production systems that handle PHI

Run Postgres, Redis, and more on dedicated infrastructure where security and compliance are enforced by default without managing AWS yourself.

"There's a certain level of infrastructure operations below which I never have to worry about. That's a big benefit, and generally a relief for our entire engineering team."

Databases are where sensitive data lives, so they're where most compliance and security failures cause real damage.

Most platforms provision the database and stop there. Aptible enforces isolation, access controls, encryption, and backups by default, so the data is protected without your team owning the configuration long term.

01

Dedicated, non-shared database infrastructure

Every database runs on dedicated infrastructure with no noisy neighbors or cross-tenant risk. Isolation is enforced by design, not configuration.

02

Access control and auditability by default

Control who can connect, tunnel into, inspect, and modify databases using identity-based permissions. Every access event is logged and attributable.

03

Encryption, backups, and durability built in

Encryption at rest and in transit, automated backups, and point-in-time recovery are enforced automatically. Data protection does not depend on manual setup or constant oversight.

04

Production-ready provisioning without AWS

Provision compliant databases in minutes without configuring VPCs, IAM, or storage policies. Databases are production-ready from day one and stay secure and compliant as you scale.

05

Operate without a DBA

Patching, upgrades, monitoring, and maintenance are handled by Aptible so your team does not accidentally become database administrators.

06

Databases your team already uses

Run 8 database types with the same isolation, security, and compliance guarantees.

Postgres

Redis

MySQL

Elasticsearch

Infrastructure isolation

Dedicated, non-shared database infrastructure

Shared by default unless explicitly designed

Access control

Simple role-based access with full audit trails

IAM and database permissions managed separately with fragmented audit logs

Audit logging

All access and changes logged automatically

Fragmented logs across services

Encryption

Enforced at rest and in transit by default

Must be configured and validated

Observability

Access, changes, activity, logs, and metrics logged automatically with durable retention

Logs spread across CloudWatch, CloudTrail, and databases with manual setup and correlation

Backups and recovery

Automated backups with point-in-time recovery

Requires manual setup and testing

Compliance drift

Guardrails preserve posture over time

Easy to drift as systems evolve

Operational overhead

Managed by the platform

Ongoing ownership and maintenance

Digital health startup launching an AI-enabled product handling PHI

Teams need databases that are compliant from day one, not configured toward compliance later. Choosing a non-compliant database early creates a retrofit problem that's expensive to fix under customer or auditor pressure. Aptible provisions production-ready databases with the right controls already in place.

Growing team migrating from DIY RDS or self managed databases

As systems scale, misconfiguration risk compounds and operational overhead grows. Teams move to Aptible to get consistent security posture across all databases and remove the ongoing maintenance burden without rebuilding their data layer.

Early-stage team without SREs, platform engineers, or DBAs

Founders who need to move fast without becoming accidental database administrators choose Aptible. The platform handles patching, backups, and access controls so the team stays focused on the product, not the infrastructure underneath it.

real engineers, not bots

A database, plus a DBA

Most platforms stop at provisioning a database. Aptible provides direct access to expert SREs through a shared Slack channel and 24/7 support, so teams can plan migrations, design PHI-safe schemas, and move forward without guessing.
