New Feature: Simple DNS Access for Your Databases & Caches

We’re rolling out a new way to connect to your cache and database instances using clean DNS hostnames and standard ports – no more strange high NodePort numbers.

What’s New

  • Human-friendly DNS names

Each instance can now have a hostname like:

redis-prod-cache.yourtenant.danubedata.ro or mysql-maindb.yourtenant.danubedata.ro.

  • Standard ports

Connect over the ports your tools expect by default:

  • Redis/Valkey/Dragonfly: 6379

  • MySQL/MariaDB: 3306

  • PostgreSQL: 5432

  • Easier testing & multi-environment setups

  • Test from your local machine or any external environment using the same hostname and port.

  • Keep dev, staging, and production clearly separated with different DNS names while keeping connection patterns identical.

  • Cleaner connection strings

You can now copy-paste simple connection details directly from the UI or API into your apps, CI pipelines, or local tools.

If you’d like us to enable DNS for specific instances or environments, just let us know which ones and we’ll help you set them up.
