Active boot disk 14 key11/9/2023 ![]() Most database clients understand the external connection string, which (like the internal database URL) looks like We also provide the PSQL command to connect to your database which can be copied and run in the terminal as is.Ĭonnecting from outside of Render will result in decreased performance as compared to connecting from within Render, so you should always prefer to use the internal connection values where possible. In these cases you can connect to your database using the external connection string on the database page. You might want to run ad-hoc queries or migrations against your database from machines outside Render. To use the internal connection, the service and database need to be in the same account/team and region. Many database frameworks allow (or require) a connection string instead of individual connection parameters. The hostname, username, database, and password are displayed on the database page:Īn internal database URL that looks like is also available if needed. Using internal connection values is the recommended way for your apps to connect to your Render database. This minimizes network latency and maximizes app performance. For services deployed on Render, you should always use the internal connection parameters shown below. The hostname will differ depending on where you’re connecting from. Usually, the port can be left unspecified. Render uses the default PostgreSQL port of 5432 to connect. See Getting Started for examples.Īt a minimum, your app will need to know your database’s hostname, port, username, password, and database name (e.g. How you connect to your database depends on your code: some frameworks expect a single connection string or URL in an environment variable, while others need multiple connection parameters in a configuration file. As noted below, we generate random values for them if you omit them. The database name and user name cannot be changed after creation. Like web services, you can give your database a memorable name (which you can change at any time). You can create a PostgreSQL database on Render in under a minute. We have some examples backed by PostgreSQL to get you started: Your database comes with encryption at rest, automated backups for paid instances, and expandable SSD storage. Render’s managed PostgreSQL offering makes it easy to use PostgreSQL in a secure, reliable, and completely hands-off way. PostgreSQL is a powerful, open-source, object-relational database management system used globally by some of the world’s best technology companies. Fortunately, you can store state in a fully managed PostgreSQL instance on Render. ![]() Stateless services are simple and scalable, but most complex services eventually end up needing persistent state. We’ll work with selected organizations to help ensure a successful, speedy migration. ![]() Migrating from Heroku? We’re previewing an upcoming tool for low-downtime PostgreSQL migration and are looking for organizations with a large (50+ GB) Heroku Postgres database to migrate. ![]()
