Manage Database
This page covers monitoring your database status, viewing cluster nodes, and performing lifecycle operations.
Database Status
Each database displays a status indicator:
| Status | Description |
|---|---|
| Running | Database is healthy and accepting connections |
| Provisioning | Database is being created (typically 2–5 minutes) |
| Pending | Waiting for resources to be allocated |
| Deleting | Database is being removed |
| Error | Provisioning failed — delete and recreate |
Database Configuration
The overview page displays your database configuration:
- Engine & Version — e.g., PostgreSQL 17 or FerretDB 2.7
- Mode — Standalone or HA
- Instance Type — compute/storage profile
- Region — deployment region
- Public Endpoint — Enabled or Disabled
- Created — creation date
Cluster Nodes (HA Mode)
For databases in HA mode, the overview page shows a nodes table:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Node ID | Unique node identifier |
| Role | primary or replica |
| Status | Node health status |
In HA mode, Patroni manages automatic failover. If the primary node fails, a replica is promoted automatically.
Deleting a Database
To delete a database:
- Navigate to the database list
- Open the actions menu for the target database
- Click Delete
- Confirm the deletion in the dialog
Common Issues
- Database stuck in Provisioning — If provisioning takes longer than 10 minutes, the cluster may have encountered an issue. Check for error status and recreate if needed.
- Error status after creation — Delete the failed database and create a new one. If the issue persists, contact support.
- Cannot connect after Running — Verify you are using the correct endpoint (Private vs Public) and that your network allows the connection.
