Managed databases
Hikube offers fully managed databases, which you create and manage from the Hikube console, in the DB & Messaging section of your project's side menu. For each cluster, the console lets you choose the version, the resource template (preset), the number of replicas and the disk size, manage users and, depending on the engine, databases.
