Requesting a component (database or cache)

Valkey, PostgreSQL or your own MariaDB for your website.

A API Helpcenter · Last updated

A component is a separate database or cache alongside your website, such as Valkey, PostgreSQL or your own MariaDB.

Before you start

  • Your provider must enable component requests for you. If you do not see the Components tab, contact your provider.

Steps

  1. Go to Websites and open the website.
  2. Go to Website › Components.
  3. Choose the component and the profile.
  4. Click Request (for your own MariaDB: Request own MariaDB).

Good to know

  • Your own MariaDB is switched over during the night. The website is briefly in maintenance then.
  • With Valkey and WordPress, you switch on the object cache with Switch on the object cache in WordPress.
  • You request a larger profile or more storage; a smaller one is possible right away.
