Elastx DBaaS automatically ensures your databases are reliable, secure, and scalable so that your business continues to run without disruption. It provides full compatibility with the source database engines while reducing operations costs by automating database provisioning and other time-consuming tasks.

Easy high availability and disaster protection by configuring replication and backups to protect your data. Backups and multi-node datastores are disaster protected as they are running over multiple availability zones which in our case are geographically separated data centers. Automatic failover makes your database highly available. Your data is encrypted at rest, ISO 27001, 27017, 27018 as well as 14001 compliant.

A Datastore is a database instance with one or more nodes. In the Datastore you can have one or more databases. A datastore can be created with a single node or a primary node with one replica.

You can manage the Datastores with the web-UI. Authentication to the web-UI is done with the Elastx Identity Provider where MFA with TOTP or Yubikey is required. All datastores owned by the organization will be visible for all users with access to that organization.

To access the datastores you need database user credentials which you get and manage for each individual database. You also need to configure the Datastore firewall to allow access from specific IP addresses. The Connection assistant will help you to get the connection string for common programming languages.

In the web-UI you get graphs on key performance metrics on the database and the nodes that will help you to manage capacity and performance. You can scale the Datastore by adding or removing nodes and also to change the size of a node by replacing a it with a different flavor. Contact Elastx support if you need to increase the storage capacity and we will help you. Please note that ephemeral storage can’t be increased unless you change node flavor.

Elastx Cloud Platform (ECP) is designed for business-critical services and sensitive data. Therefore we include several services to ensure high availability and security by default. These services are generally not included by other providers.

The following services are included as standard in our prices: 24x7 support, Threat Intelligence, DDoS protection, encrypted traffic between our availability zones and encryption of storage.

All prices exclude VAT.

Service description

Elastx DBaaS lets you create managed databases entirely under Swedish regulations. Our platform uses open source or widely adopted databases without modifications. This means that you can move your solution to any platform that meets the same requirements. No lock-in! The platform is designed to offer high availability and disaster protection. We take care of the basic operation of the platform so that you can focus on delivering benefits to your customers.

Scope

The service includes self-service functionality for deploying, scaling and removing datastores. The Datastores are monitored and updated including the underlying operating system. We fix service issues according to our support SLA.

The customer is responsible for using the database according to best practices including optimizing requests and database structure to handle the workload.

Access

When a Datastore is deployed there is a single database and database user configured. The customer is responsible for creating the required additional databases and users.

Network access is blocked by default. It is the customer responsibility to allow access in the firewall functionality for the required sources.

Backup and recovery

The backup and recovery functionality is included in the service. All backups are stored in Elastx object storage which is secured by storing the data in three copies spread over the region's availability zones (data centers). Elastx is responsible for the backup and recovery functionality and the customer is responsible for adjusting the schedule and retention according to their requirements. The customer is also responsible for the data recovery by using the DBaaS restore function.

Scalability

The service includes a way to add and replace nodes to Datastore clusters. This will enable customers to increase or decrease capacity
