Cloud Provider Selections with the SkySQL previous release DBaaS API

Select a Cloud Provider

A cloud provider is selected during service launch. When using the REST API, select a cloud provider by calling the the /services API endpoint with the provider attribute set.

For example, prepare a request body containing the desired service options in a file called request-service.json:

$ cat > request-service.json <<EOF
{
   "name": "doc-test-tx-single",
   "provider": "AWS",
   "region": "us-east-2",
   "release_version": "MariaDB Enterprise Server 10.6.4-1",
   "replicas": "0",
   "size": "Sky-2x8",
   "tier": "Foundation",
   "topology": "Single Node Transactions",
   "tx_storage": "100",
   "volume_iops": "100"
}

Then use curl to call the /services API endpoint to create (launch) a new database service and save the response to the response-service.json file:

$ curl --location --request POST \
   --header 'Authorization: Bearer SKYSQL_BEARER_TOKEN' \
   --header 'Content-type: application/json' \
   --data '@request-service.json' \
   api.skysql.net/services/ \
   | tee response-service.json | jq .

Upon success, the command will return JSON with details about the new service.
