Want to launch a PostgreSQL database in the cloud for free? Miget now offers fully managed PostgreSQL with optional public access via IPv4/IPv6 – perfect for development, testing, and prototypes.

🚀 Note: PostgreSQL isn't available as a standalone service (yet). You’ll need to create an app – but this can be an empty, dummy app used only to host the database.

🛠️ Step-by-Step Guide

1. Create an App (a dummy one is fine)

Navigate to Applications, click Create Application, and fill in the basic info.

Create Application

2. Choose the Free Resource Tier

Select the Miget Free resource (0.1 CPU, 256 Mi RAM, 1 Gi storage).

⚠️ Important: Your dummy app will reserve ~128 Mi of RAM even if it doesn’t run anything, leaving ~128 Mi available for your database.

Choose Free Resource

3. Add PostgreSQL as an Add-on

Go to the Add-ons tab and click Add Your First Addon → PostgreSQL.

Select Add-on

4. Configure Your Database

Choose your PostgreSQL version (e.g. 17.x).
Enable Public Access if you want it reachable from the internet.
Set CPU/RAM/Disk (Free plan defaults shown here).

Configure PostgreSQL

5. Connect to Your Database

After creation, you'll see full connection details including external URL, database name, username, and password.

6. Connect with `psql`

Use the provided connection string or run:

Example:

PGPASSWORD=OeI0wAebyme9 psql -h postgres-tm1vt.db.eu-east-1.onmiget.com -U o3udoa2n h4gsaj8x
psql (17.5)
SSL connection (protocol: TLSv1.3, cipher: TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384, compression: off, ALPN: postgresql)
Type "help" for help.

h4gsaj8x=>

7. Verify Public IPv4/IPv6 Access

If you enabled public access, your database will be reachable over both IPv4 and IPv6.

You can verify the DNS resolution like this:

host postgres-tm1vt.db.eu-east-1.onmiget.com
postgres-tm1vt.db.eu-east-1.onmiget.com has address 91.90.88.188
postgres-tm1vt.db.eu-east-1.onmiget.com has address 91.90.88.189
postgres-tm1vt.db.eu-east-1.onmiget.com has IPv6 address 2001:41d0:a800:c00:10::babe
postgres-tm1vt.db.eu-east-1.onmiget.com has IPv6 address 2001:41d0:a800:c00:10::c0de

You can now connect to the database from anywhere in the world using IPv4 or IPv6 — depending on your client and network support.

Miget is dual-stack ready: every public database endpoint comes with native IPv6 support alongside IPv4.

⚠️ Free Plan Limitations

FREE PLAN: The free plan comes with no best effort guarantees and can be limited below 10% CPU cap. This plan is subject to limitations and may not provide consistent performance.
FREE Miget® Offer: There is no SLA.

If you need more RAM or CPU, you can upgrade your resource or move to a paid plan for better performance and support.
