You can deploy any database or service on Hostman using custom Docker containers .

A few databases are preset to make them easier for you to deploy: MySQL, PostgreSQL and MongoDB. You can deploy any of these databases in just a few clicks.

Click "Create a service" and choose Database:

Private network access

If you want to access the database using a private network, choose the same location where your application instances are located. In this case all services will be on the same virtual private network and can be accessed via local IP addresses.

That's pretty much it. Now click Deploy and wait for the deploy to complete. When it's finished, you'll receive a fresh instance of your database.

All the requisites and connection strings for different programming languages are available in the database Dashboard.
