This document describes how to create an instance in the TencentDB for MariaDB console.
Instructions
1. Log in to the TencentDB for MariaDB purchase page, select the database instance information as needed, confirm the details, and click Buy Now.
Billing Mode: monthly subscription and pay-as-you-go billing are supported.
Region: select a region where the instance will be deployed. We recommend that you use the same region as the CVM instance to be connected to.
Availability Zone:
Primary AZ: The AZ where the primary node will be deployed. AZs are physical IDCs whose electric power facilities and networks are independent from each other within the same region. We recommend that you use the same AZ as that of the CVM instance to be connected to.
Replica AZ: the AZ where the replica node will be deployed. As cross-AZ access is supported, the replica AZ can be different from the primary AZ, and in this case, we recommend you select the same AZ as that of your standby business system.
Network Type: select the network for the instance. We recommend that you use the same network as the CVM instance to be connected to. The VPC network cannot be changed once selected. For VPC-related operations, see Managing Private Networks.
Instance Version: For more information, see Instance Architecture. The more replicas, the higher the availability.
Database Version: Three versions are currently supported: MySQL 8.0.18 (fully compatible with MySQL 8.0), Percona 5.7.17 (fully compatible with MySQL 5.7), and MariaDB 10.1.9 (fully compatible with MySQL 5.6).
Instance Specification: Instance specifications represent different performance levels and pricing bases. For more information, see Billing Overview.
Disk: SSD (local disk) is used by default.
Project: If instances need to be managed by different teams, assign the instances to the projects of different teams accordingly.
Quantity: this represents the number of instances that can be purchased at a time. To avoid faulty operations, an upper limit has been set for this parameter. If you want to purchase more instances, please make multiple purchases.
2. On the confirmation page, review the details and click Submit Order to proceed with the payment.
3. After completing the payment, return to the instance list. Once the instance status changes to Running, you can proceed with subsequent operations.
