While using the latest version of the gem (0.3.4) we ran into this error:
ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: PG::FeatureNotSupported: ERROR: Function pg_last_xlog_receive_location() is currently not supported for Aurora
Looking into it further, support for Aurora Postgres was added by checking for the presence of a particular type backend in pg_stat_activity per https://github.com/ankane/distribute_reads/blob/master/lib/distribute_reads.rb#L50. The current version of Aurora Postgres (13.4), does not have the exact aurora runtime
matching backend_type, but has aurora runtime process
.
production=> SELECT distinct backend_type FROM pg_stat_activity ;
