The DBMS (**D**ata**B**ase **M**anagement **S**ystems) that we offer are **entirely hosted** in all of our offers: we install, configure, maintain and secure your databases. This way you only need to handle the interactions between your applications and your databases.

- [MariaDB/MySQL](/en/docs/web-hosting/databases/mariadb/)
- [PostgreSQL](/en/docs/web-hosting/databases/postgresql/)
- [RabbitMQ](/en/docs/web-hosting/databases/rabbitmq/)

On Private Cloud plans:

- [ElasticSearch](/en/docs/web-hosting/databases/elasticsearch/)
- [Memcached](/en/docs/web-hosting/databases/memcached/)
- [Redis](/en/docs/web-hosting/databases/redis/)

> [!NOTE]
> For security reasons, it is only possible to create databases and database users from the administration interface or from our [API](/en/docs/development/api). Therefore this is not possible using a third party application (e.g. phpMyAdmin).


> [!WARNING]
> Hosting **only** databases in a free pack is not allowed.
