Which databases are supported?

Depending on whether you manage your web hosting in CloudPit or in the legacy Control Panel, different types of databases are available to you.

Currently, CloudPit supports the following MySQL versions:

• MySQL 5.7
• MySQL 8

At the moment, our legacy Control Panel supports the following databases:

• MySQL 5.7
• MySQL 8
• PostgreSQL 9.6

In addition to SSH, you can also access MySQL databases via phpMyAdmin. We do not offer a similar web interface for PostgreSQL, so you will need a tool like HeidiSQL for external access to such databases.

For more information on how to connect to your database externally, please read the following article: How can I access my database externally?

If you generally need a different database software than what we offer in shared hosting, you can set this up yourself with one of our VPS products. More information: How can I order a VPS?
