One example is Amazon RDS Proxy.
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/rds-proxy.html

See the section:
"Additional limitations for RDS for PostgreSQL"

I haven't tried Amazon RDS Proxy myself but I heard about it in a
conversation with a Pgpool-II user. He tried to use Pgpool-II with
Amazon RDS Proxy and failed.
