Managed MariaDB

Managed MariaDB, operated in Switzerland.

Hikube managed MariaDB is the widely deployed SQL engine in the Databases as a Service catalog, operated in Switzerland, without a US DBaaS.

  • Widely deployed SQL
  • Swiss S3 backups
  • Private network
ISO 27001
3 DC
SLA 99.99%

Useful when the application already speaks MariaDB. Same jurisdiction as compute and backup. PostgreSQL remains the other SQL on the hub: managed PostgreSQL.

Widely deployed SQL

MariaDB in the catalog, for apps already on that SQL.

Swiss S3 backups

Optional, to object storage in the same tenant, not to a US bucket.

Private network

The database listens in the VPC. Kubernetes apps or VMs connect there.

In detail

For applications already written for MariaDB: you do not need to migrate everything to PostgreSQL to stay in Switzerland. An engineer frames the engine in the trial. This is not Aurora, not a 15-SKU SQL catalog.

Operations: HA, updates, optional backups to Swiss S3. Private access via the VPC. Secrets in Vault as a Service. Support in French and English. Docs: docs.hikube.cloud.

Keep MariaDB if the app is already there. Choose PostgreSQL for new standard relational: managed PostgreSQL. Redis, MongoDB and ClickHouse cover cache, document and OLAP. Hub: the five managed database engines.

MariaDB is here for applications already written in MySQL-family SQL: there is no separate MySQL SKU in the catalogue, this engine covers that dialect. If you are starting a fresh schema with no compatibility constraint, PostgreSQL is the default choice: managed PostgreSQL. Migration uses mysqldump and the engine’s standard tooling, with no intermediate format. Available versions are not published here: check them before migrating an application that depends on recent syntax.

Frequently asked questions

No. Hikube is a sovereign cloud: compute, storage, backups and metadata stay on three independent Swiss datacenters (Geneva, Gland, Lucerne). There is no replication to the EU or the United States.

The operator is Hidora SA, a Swiss company in Lancy (Geneva), with no US parent. Compute, storage, backups and metadata stay in Geneva, Gland and Lucerne. That is not the same legal basis as AWS, Azure or GCP. We are not your counsel: GDPR for EU data in Switzerland relies in particular on adequacy.

Through the Hikube API and the console. Terraform and Cluster API integration in preparation. kubectl, Helm and S3 clients stay. Docs: docs.hikube.cloud.
