Answers to Your Questions

What is PostgreSQL in the context of your cloud service, and how does it differ from other database solutions?

PostgreSQL is one of the most popular databases in the world, due to its open source code and wide community support. It is considered a "combine" that is suitable for both small projects and highly loaded systems.

PostgreSQL also works well in the cloud — on Hostman's advanced hardware.

Which versions of PostgreSQL are supported, and do you have plans for future updates?

We support the most widely used and stable versions of PostgreSQL 13, 14, 15 and 16.

What tools are available for managing PostgreSQL databases on your platform?

You can use any familiar web interfaces for database management by Adminer. But it is most convenient to do it directly in the Hostman control panel.

In the Hostman control panel you can:

- Monitor load and resource consumption schedules,

- add users and manage their access rights,

- customize editing parameters,

- connect extensions and increase the functionality of the database,

- create backups, manage IP addresses, change tariffs and so on.

How does your cloud service handle backup and recovery for PostgreSQL databases?

You can create database backups directly in the Hostman control panel: manually at any time or enable automatic backups once a day, once a week or once a month.

How can I set up and start using PostgreSQL on your cloud platform?

Run your cloud DBMS directly from the Hostman control panel. You won't need to invest in server infrastructure or hire specialists. You can create and configure the database yourself, and Hostman specialists will help you with data migration.

How is the security of PostgreSQL ensured, and what encryption and authentication measures are in place?

First, we provide 99.9% SLA reliability and place servers exclusively in the most reliable Tier IV data centers that meet all international security standards:

ISO: standards for data center design,

PCI DSS: payment data processing standards,

GDPR: European Union standards for personal data protection.

Secondly, like all Hostman cloud solutions, databases are protected from unauthorized access — only your authorized employees and specialists can work with them. User management takes place directly in the modern Hostman control panel — no additional web interfaces are needed.

In addition, PostgreSQL itself has a built-in MVCC parallel access control system. Each user receives a snapshot — a "snapshot" of the database, in which changes are made. Only after the transaction is committed, they are transferred to the original database. While a person makes changes, they are not visible to other users.

Can I scale resources for my PostgreSQL database, and what scaling options are provided?

Hostman will provide your project with the resources it needs — easily add power and capacity to your cloud database, right in your control panel. The Hostman support team can help you reduce resources.

How does your support team assist with PostgreSQL-related issues and troubleshooting?

Hostman's fast, professional and friendly support is always on call. We respond in just a few minutes and immediately get involved in solving your problems: no tedious line waits, escalations or support levels. See for yourself!
