General and Database Settings

Add Cluster Wizard - General Settings

Set the following options:

  • Cluster Name: Enter a name for the cluster.
  • Provider: Choose a cloud provider.
  • Security Profile: Choose Advanced to configure your cluster with added security features. Advanced security requires that the cluster be deployed in a VPC and has scheduled backups, and does not allow public access.
  • Database Version: Dedicated clusters are deployed using a stable release. If you have arranged a custom build with Yugabyte, it is also listed here.
  • Enhanced Postgres Compatibility: Select this option to enable Enhanced PostgreSQL Compatibility Mode (database v2024.1.0 or later only).
