Quickstart: create a managed PostgreSQL database and connect
Create a managed PostgreSQL database on ElectraDB and connect from psql, Python, Node.js, Go or Java with verified TLS.
Backups and point-in-time restore
How ElectraDB backs up PostgreSQL continuously, and how to restore a database to any second of the last 7 days, even after deleting it.
High availability and replication modes
How ElectraDB keeps PostgreSQL online with a standby in a second site, automatic failover, and sync, write or async replication.
Security: TLS, passwords, IP allowlist and encryption
How ElectraDB secures managed PostgreSQL: verified TLS, one-time passwords, IP allowlists, encrypted backups, API keys and two-factor sign-in.
Plans, resizing and storage limits
Choose an ElectraDB PostgreSQL plan, change plans without downtime, and learn what happens when a database reaches its storage limit.
When your database is full
A database that reaches its plan's storage becomes read-only. How to free space and get writes working again.
Regions and data residency
Choose where your ElectraDB PostgreSQL database lives: EU, US or Asia. Your database, its standby and its backups stay in that region.
