Create additional Aiven for MySQL® databases

Once you've created your Aiven for MySQL® service, you can add additional databases, whether for security purposes or to isolate your data per application.

To create a new MySQL® database, take the following steps:

  1. Log in to Aiven Console.

  2. In the Services page, select an Aiven for MySQL service for which you want to create a new database.

  3. In your service's page, select Databases from the sidebar.

  4. In the Databases view, select Create database.

  5. In the Create a new database window, enter a name for your database into the Name field and select Add database.

    The new database will be visible immediately.

tip

You can also use the Aiven client or the MySQL client to create your database from the CLI.
