Launch Page

The Launch page allows you to create a new MariaDB Cloud service by selecting the service type and topology, choosing a cloud provider and region, defining the resource configuration, specifying service attributes, and setting security options. You can access this page by clicking Launch New Service in the Portal Dashboard.

Launch Service

When making launch-time selections, the right-hand panel displays a summary of your selections, along with estimated costs, allowing you to better understand the configuration and price before deployment.

To launch a MariaDB Cloud service from the Portal:

1. From the Dashboard, click the + Launch New Service button.

2. Choose the Service Type: By default, the Portal selects Serverless. You can switch to Provisioned if you prefer a single-node or replicated topology. Each selection section controls a different aspect of how your database service will be deployed and configured. Provisioned options:

   • MariaDB Server Single Node

   • MariaDB Server with Replicas

   Serverless option:

   • MariaDB Serverless Single Node

   The selection defines how compute resources are allocated, whether replicas are included, or whether the service scales automatically.

3. Choose the desired Cloud Provider:

   • AWS

   • Google Cloud

   • Azure

4. Choose the desired Region.

   • Each region has a scheduled maintenance window.

5. Choose the desired Instance Size.

   • If your workload requires a larger instance size, contact us regarding Power Tier.

6. If needed, enable Auto-Scaling of Nodes.

7. Choose the desired Storage Configuration.

8. If needed, enable Auto-Scaling of Storage.

9. Choose the number of nodes to deploy.

10. Choose the desired Server Version.

11. Enter the desired Service Name (Up to 24 characters).

12. Configure Primary Endpoint security.

    • Select how the service should accept connections.

13. Enable topology-specific features, if desired:

    • Disable SSL/TLS

    • NoSQL Interface

After initiating the launch, the new service will appear on the Portal Dashboard.

A notification will be sent at the time-of-service launch initiation and when service launch completes.
