What are Managed Databases?

Databases on Vertra Cloud are fully managed with automatic security configuration, TLS certificates and monitoring. Each database receives isolated memory and storage resources.

Available Databases

PostgreSQL 17

Relational database with full SQL, JSONB and extensions support.Port: 5432  |  TLS: Mandatory  |  Auth: Certificate + Password

MongoDB 8.0

NoSQL document-oriented database for flexible data.Port: 27017  |  TLS: Mandatory  |  Auth: Platform-signed CA

Redis 7

In-memory storage for high-performance caching, queues and pub/sub.Port: 6379  |  TLS: Mandatory  |  Auth: Password + TLS

MySQL 8.0

Popular relational database with ACID transactions and large ecosystem.Port: 3306  |  TLS: Mandatory  |  Auth: X509 Mandatory

TLS Security

All databases use encrypted connections with mandatory TLS. Certificates are generated automatically during creation.
  • CA Certificate (Certificate Authority) for signing
  • Server Certificate with wildcard SNI for database domains
  • Client Certificate signed by CA
  • Client Bundle (key + certificate + CA) for download
MySQL uses mandatory X509 authentication in addition to password. The require_secure_transport is enabled by default, ensuring all connections are end-to-end encrypted.

Connection Examples

const { Pool } = require('pg');
const fs = require('fs');

const pool = new Pool({
  host: 'your-database.db.vertracloud.app',
  port: 5432,
  user: 'your-user',
  password: 'your-password',
  database: 'default',
  ssl: {
    ca: fs.readFileSync('ca.pem'),
    cert: fs.readFileSync('client-cert.pem'),
    key: fs.readFileSync('client-key.pem'),
  }
});

Available Operations

Start / Stop / Restart

Control the container lifecycle. Data is preserved during stop/restart.

Reset

Clears all data and recreates the database from scratch. Irreversible action.

Reset Password

Generates a new random and secure password for the database.

Reset Certificates

Regenerates all TLS certificates (CA, server and client).

Download Snapshot

Downloads a copy of the database data.

Restore Snapshot

Restores the database from a previous snapshot.
The Reset operation is destructive and erases all database data. This action cannot be undone.

Metrics

The panel displays real-time metrics for each database:

CPU

Container CPU usage.

Memory

Current RAM consumption.

Storage

Used disk space vs. quota.

Storage

Database storage has hard limits enforced at the container level, ensuring that a database cannot consume more space than allocated.
