Powerful & scalable
Quickly and easily spin up a high-performance PostgreSQL cluster.
Worry-free setup & maintenance
Launch a PostgreSQL cluster with just a few clicks and then access it via our simplified UI or an API. Never worry about maintenance operations or updates – we handle that for you.
Highly scalable
Scale up at anytime to support your business growth. Easily spin up read- only nodes to scale read operations.
Free daily backups
Your data is critical. That’s why we ensure it’s backed up automatically every day. Restore data to any point within the previous seven days.
End-to-end security
Databases run in your account’s private network, which isolates communication at the account or team level. Requests via the public internet can still reach your database, but only if you whitelist specific inbound sources. Data is also encrypted in transit and at rest.
Automated failover
In the event of a failure, Managed Databases will automatically switch data handling to a standby node to minimize downtime.
Fast, reliable performance
Managed Databases run on enterprise-class hardware and SSD storage, giving you lightning-fast performance.
Managed Databases for PostgreSQL are exactly what we were looking for. In the past, we did backups with cron, but now we have a secondary node ready in case of failure. The implementation was really easy and quick.

Integrated insights & alerting
Understand database performance, resource usage, and errors so that you can efficiently size, scale, and tune your PostgreSQL cluster.
Managed Databases include critical database-level metrics, such as connections, cache hit ratio, sequential vs indexed scans, throughput, and more.
Cache hit ratio is the percent of reads from the database in-memory cache, as opposed to disk, and is ideally about 99%.
Managed Databases also include cluster resource utilization metrics like CPU, load average, memory usage, and disk usage.
Disk usage is the percent of disk used by all nodes in the cluster. While it will fluctuate, you should maintain disk usage below 90%.
Set alerts on database resource usage, and get notified via email or Slack.
