Vapor allows you to easily create and manage RDS and Aurora Serverless databases. And, starting today, you may [upgrade an existing database](https://docs.vapor.build/1.0/resources/databases.html#upgrading-databases) directly from the Vapor UI or using the Vapor CLI.

When upgrading a database, a new database is created with the contents, configuration, and credentials of the original database.

Once the newly upgraded database is available, you may start using it by attaching it to an environment. And, of course, once you are satisfied with the database upgrade, you may delete the original database

We hope you enjoy this new addition to Laravel Vapor. At Laravel, we’re committed to providing you with the most robust and developer-friendly PHP experience in the world. If you haven’t checked out Vapor, now is a great time to start! You can create your account today at: **[vapor.laravel.com](https://vapor.laravel.com/)**.
