Create Database Clusters

You can create managed database clusters consisting of one or more databases of the selected DBMS (DataBase Management System) type.

To create a new cluster, go to the Databases section and click Create.

1. Select the database type and its version: MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis etc.

Once created, you won’t be able to change the database type or version.

2. Select the region where your database cluster should be located.

3. Select the plan, i.e. the configuration of your cluster.

4. Select the network settings. You can either create a new private network or add this cluster to an existing one. 

When creating a new network, you’ll need to set the IP address range for it.

5. Enable the backups if necessary. If enabled, one backup copy will be created daily. You can always enable or disable this option later.

6. Set the password for the default database user. After the cluster is created, you can add other database users as well as change the password of the default one. 

You can also set your custom name for the cluster, add a comment and choose the project to add the cluster to.

Click Order and you can start working with the database in a couple of minutes.

The database will be issued a public IP address, which you can see in the control panel. If necessary, you can disable access via public IP in the database settings.
