Databases
Early access
Managed databases on Forte are in early access. Contact support to get started.
Forte manages databases at the Project level and connects them securely to your Services. Two database engines are available:
- MongoDB — a document database for flexible, JSON-like data.
- PostgreSQL — a relational database for structured, SQL-based data.
Forte provisions, encrypts, backs up, and scales the database for you. When you attach it to a Service, Forte injects the connection string as a secret environment variable.
During early access, use the Databases tab in the console to create and manage databases. The CLI and SDK don't yet support database management.
