azure-mgmt-postgresqlflexibleservers

What it is and what it does

This is the official Azure SDK client library for managing PostgreSQL Flexible Server resources in Microsoft Azure. It wraps the Azure Resource Manager REST API, exposing operation groups for server provisioning, configuration, backups, migrations, security settings, and monitoring. The package requires Python 3.9+ and depends on msrest for HTTP communication, azure-mgmt-core for common Azure SDK patterns, and typing-extensions for runtime type hints.

Version 2.0.0 significantly expands the API surface with new operation groups for administrators, threat protection, backups, capabilities, migrations, and tuning options, plus many new model types and enums. It is intended for developers building infrastructure-as-code or management automation tools that need to programmatically control PostgreSQL Flexible Server instances in Azure.

Use it for:

• Automate provisioning and deprovisioning of PostgreSQL Flexible Server instances as part of infrastructure-as-code workflows.
• Build management dashboards or CLI tools that query server configurations, capabilities, and quota usage across Azure subscriptions.
• Implement backup and disaster-recovery automation, including long-term retention policies and on-demand backup triggers.
• Orchestrate database migrations from on-premises or other cloud PostgreSQL sources into Azure Flexible Server.
• Configure security settings, firewall rules, and Microsoft Entra authentication for PostgreSQL servers at scale.

Quickstart

pip install azure-mgmt-postgresqlflexibleservers

from azure.mgmt.postgresqlflexibleservers import PostgreSQLManagementClient
from msrest.authentication import BasicAuthentication

client = PostgreSQLManagementClient(credential, subscription_id)

Requires Python 3.9+; Azure subscription and authentication credentials must be configured before client instantiation.
