Cluster Storage & Data

Managed Databases

Provision PostgreSQL and MySQL engine instances securely connected to your application's private network.

Dequel provides fully-managed SQL database engines. Databases run as independent services on dedicated cluster nodes, complete with internal DNS endpoints, health tracking, and isolated storage mounts.

Supported Engines & Versions

Configure database versions through the provisioning dialog:

PostgreSQL: Supports 16-alpine (Recommended), 15-alpine, 14-alpine, and 13-alpine.
MySQL: Supports 8.0 (Recommended), 8.4, and 5.7.

Capacity Planning

Specify the boundary compute resource allocation during database provisioning:

CPU: Fraction of host processor power allocated (e.g. 0.5 cores).
Memory: Boundary RAM buffer allocated to database engines (e.g. 512MB).

Connection Secrets

Once provisioned, Dequel generates a private DNS connection string:

postgresql://postgres:random-password@db-my-web-app.dequel.local:5432/postgres

To inject this secret into your container runtime, navigate to Environment Variables and add:

DATABASE_URL=postgresql://postgres:random-password@db-my-web-app.dequel.local:5432/postgres
