Create Database

Introduction ​

This page lets you create a new database inside the namespace you opened it from. The database will be created in the same namespace and datacenter as its parent, so you don't need to select them again.

Database Name ​

Enter a unique name for your database in the Database Name field. This name is used to identify the database later in the list of databases.

Select Database ​

Choose the database engine you want from the available cards:

• MySQL — proxy type: haproxy, engine type: PXC
• PostgreSQL — proxy type: pgbouncer, engine type: POSTGRESQL
• MongoDB — proxy type: mongos, engine type: psmdb

Each card also shows the exact engine version that will be installed (e.g., MySQL 8.4.7-7.1).

Hardware Selection (per node) ​

Choose a hardware plan based on the resources your database needs. Three plans are available — small, medium, and large — each showing:

• CPU cores
• Memory (RAM)
• Disk space (NVMe)
• Max Concurrent Connections: the highest number of active connections (from applications, services, or admin tools) that can be open to this database at the same time. This limit depends on the plan's resources (CPU and memory) — if your application's concurrent connections exceed this number, new connection attempts may fail or be queued. If your application has high traffic or multiple services connecting simultaneously, choose a plan with a higher connection limit.
• Hourly price (per node)
• Estimated monthly price

Pick the plan that matches your expected workload; you can upgrade resources later without rebuilding the database.

Order Summary ​

As you make your selections, the panel on the right updates live with:

• General Information: database name, namespace, and number of engine replicas.
• Data Center: server location and datacenter name, inherited from the namespace.
• Database Specifications: selected engine, engine type, version, and proxy type.
• Hardware Plan: plan name, CPU, memory, disk space, and storage class.
• Price: final hourly and monthly cost.

Review this summary carefully before ordering, then click the Order button to create your database.

Note

After placing the order, it may take a few minutes for the database to become ready. You can track its status from the list of databases.
