Managed PostgreSQL for development environments
Isolated PostgreSQL 17 databases, provisioned in seconds, each with its own root user — for development, testing and prototypes.
What you get
A managed PostgreSQL database on Luceris Cloud is a PostgreSQL 17 database of its own, with its own root user and TLS endpoint. A curated catalog of 26 extensions — pgvector, PostGIS, TimescaleDB, pg_partman, pg_stat_statements, pgAudit and more — is installable from the dashboard. You connect with the same psql, drivers and ORMs you already use. Luceris Cloud is for development environments and not for production.
Version
PostgreSQL 17 — the single major version we run.
Extensions, pre-tuned
26 curated extensions installable from the Extensions tab: pgvector, PostGIS, TimescaleDB, pg_partman, pg_stat_statements, pgAudit, citext, uuid-ossp, pg_trgm, hstore and more.
Query workbench
Run SQL from the browser against an unlocked session, browse tables and their sizes, and manage extensions without leaving the dashboard.
Users and roles
Create database users with read_only, read_write or admin rights. Every user gets its own password, shown once.
TLS by default
Every connection string we issue carries sslmode=require; verify-full works with the public certificate.
Per-tenant isolation
Each database is isolated from every other tenant, with its own bcrypt-validated credentials and its own proxy ingress. No shared schema, no ambient access.
