Overview
Your database's main dashboard for a quick health check without digging through settings.
Quick Status Check
At the top, you'll see your database's status displayed prominently. Running? Provisioning? Something else going on? The status badge tells you instantly.
Below that are the essentials: what type of database you're running (MongoDB 8.0.4, PostgreSQL 14, Redis 7.2), your cluster configuration (standalone or replica set), and how much storage is allocated. This is your at-a-glance health check. If your database is doing what it should, you'll know immediately.
Database Information
The main section shows key details about your database:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Status | Whether your database is Running, Provisioning, Failed, or another state. Green means everything's good. |
| Database | The type and version. MongoDB, PostgreSQL, or Redis with the specific version number. |
| Containers | How many container instances are running. One for standalone, multiple for replica sets providing high availability. |
| Instance Size | Your database's resource allocation. Shows memory (like 512 MB) and CPU allocation (0.5 CPU). |
| Region | Where your database is deployed geographically (us-east-1, eu-west-1, ap-southeast-2). |
| Type | Standalone for single instances or Replica Set for high availability across multiple nodes. |
| Storage | How much disk space is allocated and being used. |
Credentials Section
Your database connection details are right here, safe and secure.
- Username: Your admin user (masked for security). Click the eye icon to reveal if you need to copy it.
- Password: Your admin password (also masked). Click the eye icon to see it when you need it.
- Connection String: The complete URL for connecting to your database. Copy this to your app's environment variables. Don't forget to check your credentials.
The admin user is a super user for administrative actions only, not for applications. If possible, create application-specific users with limited permissions. This is better security practice.
Click the copy icons next to credentials to grab them quickly without having to reveal and manually select.
Region and Replica Configuration
Your database runs in a specific region. Check it here to make sure it matches where your apps are deployed. Same-region databases mean lower latency and better performance.

Databases Menu
Manage all your hosted databases in one place. MongoDB, PostgreSQL, or Redis, everything lives here. Your databases and apps work together seamlessly.
Metrics
The Metrics section shows real-time and historical performance data for your database. Watch CPU, memory, connections, disk usage, and network activity to understand how your database is performing.
