Databases next to your apps

Your apps' data now lives next to them, in the same location.

What's new

• Four kinds: MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL with connection pooling on, and Valkey for a cache, sessions or queues. Apps written for Redis work with Valkey.

• Shared or its own: a small site can use a shared MySQL. Every other database gets its own memory and processor, with limits you set and use you pay for.

• Private to your project: only your project's apps can reach a database, even with the right password.

• No passwords to copy: tick Add its connection details and your app gets DB_HOST, DB_PASSWORD and the rest as variables, then redeploys without downtime.

• Passwords and users: change the main password whenever you like, or add up to 10 extra users, each reading and writing or reading only.

• Its own page: connection details, which apps use it, and its numbers.

Asha added a MySQL called mysql to duka from Overview, under Add a service. A minute later her Laravel shop connected, with nothing typed by hand.
