# Databases

Webgune provisions databases directly inside Kubernetes, with persistent storage (PVC): data survives restarts and image updates.

## Choosing an engine

| Engine | Port | Typical use case | Guide |
|--------|:---:|----------------------|-------|
| PostgreSQL | 5432 | relational applications, rich ORMs | [PostgreSQL](/docs/db-postgresql) |
| MySQL | 3306 | WordPress, Laravel, PHP in general | [MySQL](/docs/db-mysql) |
| MariaDB | 3306 | MySQL fork, same drivers | [MariaDB](/docs/db-mariadb) |
| MongoDB | 27017 | JSON documents, flexible schema | [MongoDB](/docs/db-mongodb) |
| Redis | 6379 | cache, sessions, queues | [Redis](/docs/db-redis) |

## Creating a database

1. **+ New service → Database**.
2. Choose the engine.
3. Name the database.
4. The password is generated automatically (customizable if needed).
5. **Create**: the database is ready within seconds.

## Two ways to connect

- **Internal URL**: for services within the same project, via the cluster's internal DNS. This is the default choice.
- **Public URL (NodePort)**: for access from outside (local machine, graphical tool). Must be explicitly enabled via **Expose publicly** in the **Database** tab.

## Built-in SQL interface

The **Database** tab includes a phpMyAdmin-like explorer: a list of tables with their structure, and a query editor (`Ctrl+Enter` to execute).

## Backups

The service's **Backups** tab covers both needs, manual and scheduled. See [Backups and restore](/docs/sauvegardes) for the details. In short: a **dump** exports the contents of the database, a **snapshot** copies the whole volume, and a backup is restored from the same list.

Turn scheduling on before you go to production. It runs daily by default. Without a backup, an accidental deletion cannot be undone.
