PostgreSQL wire protocol
Connect from your application, psql, or database client with pooled, verified TLS.
Managed Postgres for production apps
Create Postgres, copy your connection string, and start building. Compute sleeps when idle.
Connect with the tools you use
Copy a stable connection URL while compute prepares. Manage queries, credentials, and backups from the same workspace.
App connections
Connect Postgres to your app without putting database credentials in source code.
Database controls
Query data in Workbench, pause or resume compute, rotate credentials, and delete the database from your workspace.
Encrypted logical backups
Keep encrypted backups and recover into a separate database.
Postgres with or without App Hosting
Use standalone Postgres or connect it to an app. Both draw from the same monthly usage credit.
- Compute
- $0.106/CU-hour
- Database storage
- $0.35/GB-month
- Recovery storage
- $0.20/GB-month
A database running at 0.25 CU costs about $0.0265 per active hour. Compute scales to $0 while asleep; storage remains metered.
Create and connect
Copy your connection string, run queries in Workbench, and pause or resume compute from your workspace.
Compute sizes
Choose from 0.25 to 1 CU. One CU provides 1 vCPU and 4 GiB of memory. Idle databases release compute after five minutes and wake on connection.
Backups and recovery
Encrypted backups can be restored to a separate copy with help from our support team.
Add Postgres to your project
Choose a compute size and copy the TLS connection URL.
