Why Seemi PostgreSQL

The database you’d run yourself, without the busywork

Real Postgres, real superuser

You get genuine admin credentials, not a restricted role. No locked extensions and no support tickets to enable features.

AI-ready out of the box

pgvector for embeddings and semantic search, PostGIS for location data. Included, with no add-on fees.

Production features on every tier

Superuser access, every extension, query insights and backups, from the free tier up.

Your network, your choice

Public endpoint, fully private, or reachable only over VPN. Switch per database at any time.

Ready-to-use extensions

One command to switch on what you need

Everything below is installed and waiting. Enable it with a single CREATE EXTENSION, with no add-on fees. PostgreSQL 18 also brings native uuidv7() for time-ordered IDs.

AI and search

  • pgvectorCREATE EXTENSION vector;
    Embeddings, semantic search, RAG and recommendations with HNSW indexes.
  • pg_trgmCREATE EXTENSION pg_trgm;
    Fast fuzzy and similarity search.
  • unaccentCREATE EXTENSION unaccent;
    Accent-insensitive search.

Maps and logistics

  • PostGISCREATE EXTENSION postgis;
    Geospatial data, delivery zones, routing inputs and location search.

Scheduling and scale

  • pg_cronCREATE EXTENSION pg_cron;
    Scheduled jobs that run inside the database.
  • pg_partmanCREATE EXTENSION pg_partman;
    Automatic time-based partitioning for logs, events and IoT data.

Performance and maintenance

  • pg_stat_statementsOn by default
    Query insights for every statement.
  • hypopgCREATE EXTENSION hypopg;
    Test hypothetical indexes before you build them.
  • pg_repackCREATE EXTENSION pg_repack;
    Remove table bloat without long locks.

Security and compliance

  • pgAuditCREATE EXTENSION pgaudit;
    Detailed audit logging for compliance.
  • pgcryptoCREATE EXTENSION pgcrypto;
    Hashing and encryption functions.

Data modelling essentials

  • citextCREATE EXTENSION citext;
    Case-insensitive text.
  • hstoreCREATE EXTENSION hstore;
    Key-value pairs in a column.
  • ltreeCREATE EXTENSION ltree;
    Hierarchies and tree paths.

Foreign data wrappers are available too, for querying other databases from PostgreSQL.

Your network, your choice

Decide exactly who can reach your data

Set it per database and change it any time. Most production databases never need a public address.

Public endpoint

Optional. Connect apps hosted anywhere over TLS, with IP allowlists to limit who can reach it.

Fully private

No public address. Only your containers in the same resource group on the server can connect.

Browser terminal

Open a command line to the database container right from the portal for advanced work.

Backups and recovery

Restore to the exact moment before it went wrong

pgBackRest takes full, differential and incremental backups and archives WAL continuously, so you can recover to a specific point in time. Backups are kept in S3-compatible object storage, typically in a different datacentre from your database server.

  • Paid tiers: automated, scheduled backups
  • Free tier: run a backup from the portal any time
  • SSD and backup storage beyond the included amount is billed at standard rates on every tier.
How backups and migration work

Simple, predictable sizing

Pick a tier. Add storage only when you need it.

Fixed vCPU-to-RAM tiers, each with included SSD and matching backup capacity. Prices shown for Amsterdam.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Practical answers before deployment

Understand connectivity, backups, limitations, and operating responsibilities before selecting a SKU.
Do I get real superuser access?
Yes. Each database comes with real superuser credentials, not a restricted role, so you can create roles, enable extensions and manage the database as you would on your own server.
Which PostgreSQL extensions are available?
pgvector, PostGIS, pg_cron, pg_partman, pg_repack, pgAudit, pg_stat_statements (on by default), hypopg, pgcrypto, pg_trgm, citext, hstore, ltree, unaccent and foreign data wrappers. Enable each with one CREATE EXTENSION command, with no add-on fees.
Is free PostgreSQL hosting available?
Yes. Every tenant can run one free PostgreSQL 18 database with no expiry and no card required. SSD and backup storage beyond the free allowance is billed at standard rates; choose a paid tier for more compute.
How do backups work on free and paid tiers?
pgBackRest stores full, differential and incremental backups with continuous WAL archiving in S3-compatible object storage, typically in a different datacentre from the database server. Paid tiers run automated, scheduled backups. On the free tier you can run a backup from the portal at any time. Storage beyond the included amount is billed at standard rates.
Does PostgreSQL include point-in-time recovery?
Yes. With continuous WAL archiving you can restore to a specific moment, subject to a valid base backup, a complete WAL sequence and retention covering the requested time.
Can I keep my database off the internet?
Yes. Each database can have a public endpoint, be fully private to your resource group, or be reachable only through the encrypted Seemi private network (VPN). You can change this at any time.
Can I use a command line on the database server?
Yes. A browser terminal in the portal gives you command-line access to the database container.
Is a PostgreSQL SKU automatically highly available?
No. A single PostgreSQL component is not a synchronous multi-node HA cluster. Enterprise replication or multi-node designs require a separately reviewed architecture.
Can Seemi migrate an existing PostgreSQL database?
Yes. Seemi can scope migrations using suitable approaches such as logical export and import or approved backup and replication methods, with dry runs, rollback planning, validation, and cutover support where agreed.
