PostgreSQL
You’ll get a relational database your apps can connect to in the same environment.
Choose this when
- Apps need PostgreSQL from the ready-made catalog
- You prefer the catalog flow over the dedicated Databases path (see chooser if unsure)
What you get
- PostgreSQL in your environment
- Connection details (host, port, user, database name) on the app detail page
- Disk / storage for durable data
- Optional admin tooling when the template includes it
Options
| Option | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Environment | Prefer the same environment as the apps that use it |
| Disk / storage | Durable data capacity |
| Resources / copies | Capacity |
After deploy
Copy connection strings into app secrets or shared variables — not source control. Turn on backups before important data. Also see the Postgres database guide. Full deploy steps: How to use ready-made apps.
