Although IONOS DBaaS does not grant superuser access to MariaDB services, you may still view database clusters and perform administrator-level activities.
All back-end tasks necessary to keep your database operating at peak efficiency are handled by the IONOS platform. You can perform the following:
Database installation via the DCD or the DBaaS API.
Pre-set database configuration and configuration management options.
Automated backups for seven days with point-in-time restore.
Regular patches and upgrades during maintenance.
Service monitoring both for the database and the underlying infrastructure.
Tasks related to the optimal health of the database remain your responsibility. These include:
Optimization
Data organization
Index creation
Statistics modification
Query optimization by reviewing access plans
