Q.What is a “database instance” in Releem’s pricing?
A.A “database instance” refers to a single MySQL, MariaDB, or Percona server monitored and optimized by the Releem Agent. Each instance, whether standalone, Docker container, or cloud-managed like AWS RDS, is considered one database instance for billing.
Q.How does Releem work?
A.Releem Agent gathers MySQL metrics and system data, transfers them to the Releem Cloud Platform, where data is analyzed to recommend a new MySQL server configuration for improved performance.
Q.Is Releem safe to use?
A.Security is a top priority. Releem Agent does not collect user data, is open-source, and does not require opening ports.
Q.Would Releem automatically change MySQL configuration without my approval?
A.Releem does not automatically implement configurations without your explicit action. Configurations are applied only when you choose to hit the 'Apply Now' button or execute a specific SSH command.
Q.What if I want to connect more than 1 DB instance?
A.Start with a free trial and upgrade directly in the app. For more than 4 database instances, contact us to discuss details.
