Autobase

Autobase is an open-source self-hosted Database-as-a-Service platform with over 4,000 GitHub stars, designed to automate PostgreSQL cluster deployment and management. Built as an alternative to cloud-managed database services like Amazon RDS, Google Cloud SQL, and Azure Database, Autobase gives you full control over your PostgreSQL infrastructure while providing the same convenience of one-click provisioning, automated failover, and centralized management through an intuitive web console.

Common Use Cases

DevOps teams use Autobase to standardize PostgreSQL deployments across environments, provisioning development, staging, and production clusters through a single console with consistent configurations and automated backups. Startups and small businesses deploy Autobase to get managed-database-like convenience without the cost of cloud database services, running production PostgreSQL clusters on their own infrastructure. Database administrators use Autobase to manage multiple PostgreSQL clusters from a centralized dashboard, monitoring health, performing failovers, and managing backups across their fleet. Development teams leverage the integrated DBDesk Studio for direct SQL access, schema exploration, and query execution without additional database management tools.

Why deploy Autobase on Hostinger VPS

Deploying Autobase on a Hostinger VPS gives you a private database management platform that eliminates the recurring costs of cloud-managed database services while providing the same automated provisioning and management capabilities. Self-hosting ensures your database infrastructure and all stored data remain under your complete control, meeting compliance and data sovereignty requirements. With dedicated VPS resources, Autobase can manage PostgreSQL clusters efficiently, handling provisioning, monitoring, and failover operations without competing for resources. The Docker socket integration enables Autobase to orchestrate PostgreSQL containers directly on the host, providing a seamless database management experience on your own infrastructure.
