opt-out from Aurora Postgres update

Question

hi,  
  
Recently we received notification about Aurora Postgres update which should be applied by us by specific date. Notification tells if we don't do it it will be done automatically anyway.   
Is it possible to opt-out from ALL Aurora Postgres updates?  
  
Thank you

Answer

Hi notmaxx.  I am a development manager for Aurora PostgreSQL.  While our patching is generally opt-in, we occasionally require a mandatory patch.  This is one of those cases.  I apologize for any inconvenience this causes.  If you would like to send me a pm so I can better understand you desire for an opt-out, feel free to do so.  However as a managed service we take responsibility for the health of the fleet, which includes mandatory patching when we deem it appropriate.
