DMS — connect a database

Connect Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB, or CockroachDB to your workspace and browse it under workspace permissions.

Updated May 5, 2026

DMS is the database app inside clustra. It supports four engines today — Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB, and CockroachDB — and uses workspace roles to scope access.

Connect a database

  1. 01

    Open DMS

    After installing DMS, open it from the workspace sidebar.

  2. 02

    Add a connection

    Click “Add database”. Pick the engine (Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB, or CockroachDB) and provide host, port, database name, username, password, and whether to enforce SSL.

  3. 03

    Test and save

    DMS verifies the connection before saving. Once saved, the database appears in the sidebar with its tables.
