Worry-free MySQL hosting
Leave the complexity of MySQL administration to us. We’ll handle setting up, backing up, and updating, so you can focus on building great apps.
Why MySQL?
MySQL is a prominent open-source relational database management system. An incredibly flexible and powerful program, MySQL is used to store and retrieve data for a wide variety of popular applications.
Managed MySQL & PostgreSQL Now Support Up to 20TB and 30TB
In select regions, you can now scale cluster storage independently of CPU and memory, with support for up to 20TB for MySQL and 30TB for PostgreSQL.
Robust capabilities, easy to scale
Quickly and easily spin up a high-performance, high-capacity database cluster.
Worry-free setup
Launch a MySQL cluster in a few clicks and access it via our UI or API. We'll handle maintenance and updates. Easily migrate databases from external servers, cloud providers, or self-hosted solutions.
Highly scalable
Scale up to 20TB at any time to support your business growth. Dynamically increase CPUs, RAM, and storage on existing MySQL clusters and 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, and only whitelisted requests via the public internet can reach your database. 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
Run your clusters on Droplets with shared vCPUs or choose Droplets with 100% dedicated vCPUs for mission-critical workloads.
DigitalOcean's Managed Databases have been a game-changer. They've done a fantastic job of removing the complexity of setting up, tuning, and securing databases for production use.
