Creating a cluster is a foundational step when deploying services in Elestio. Clusters provide isolated environments where you can run containerized workloads, databases, and applications. Elestio’s web dashboard helps the process, allowing you to configure co...

Node management plays a critical role in operating reliable and scalable infrastructure on Elestio. Whether you’re deploying stateless applications or stateful services like databases, managing the underlying compute units nodes is essential for maintaining st...

As your application usage grows or your infrastructure requirements change, scaling your cluster becomes essential. In Elestio, you can scale horizontally by adding new nodes to an existing cluster. This operation allows you to expand your compute capacity, im...

Clusters can be designed for high availability or role-based workloads, where certain nodes may take on leadership or coordination responsibilities. In these scenarios, promoting a node is a key administrative task. It allows you to change the role of a node. ...

Over time, infrastructure needs change. You may scale down a cluster after peak load, decommission outdated resources, or remove a node that is no longer needed for cost, isolation, or maintenance reasons. Removing a node from a cluster is a safe and structure...

Reliable backups are essential for data resilience, recovery, and business continuity. Elestio provides built-in support for managing backups across all supported services, ensuring that your data is protected against accidental loss, corruption, or infrastruc...

Securing access to services is a fundamental part of managing cloud infrastructure. One of the most effective ways to reduce unauthorized access is by restricting connectivity to a defined set of IP addresses. Elestio supports IP-based access control through i...

In distributed systems, consistency and synchronization between nodes are critical to ensure that services behave reliably and that data remains accurate across the cluster. Elestio provides built-in mechanisms to detect and resolve inconsistencies across no...

When managing production-grade services, the ability to perform reliable and repeatable database migrations is critical. Whether you’re applying schema changes, updating seed data, or managing version-controlled transitions, Elestio provides a built-in mechani...

When a cluster is no longer needed whether it was created for testing, staging, or an obsolete workload deleting it helps free up resources and maintain a clean infrastructure footprint. Elestio provides a straightforward and secure way to delete entire cluste...

Elestio provides a structured approach for migrating Valkey databases from various environments, such as self-hosted servers, on-premises infrastructure, or other cloud platforms, to its managed services. This process ensures data integrity and minimizes downt...

Migrating or cloning services across cloud providers or geographic regions is a critical part of modern infrastructure management. Whether you’re optimizing for latency, preparing for disaster recovery, meeting regulatory requirements, or simply switching prov...

Manual migrations using Valkey’s native tools are ideal for users who prefer full control over data export and import, particularly during provider transitions, environment duplication, or when importing an existing self‑managed Valkey dataset into Elestio’s m...

Valkey is a high-performance fork of Redis that emphasizes open governance and continued compatibility while introducing community-driven enhancements. Setting up Valkey correctly is essential for achieving low-latency performance and ensuring durability in mo...

Upgrading a database service on Elestio can be done without creating a new instance or performing a full manual migration. Elestio provides a built-in option to change the database version directly from the dashboard. This is useful for cases where the upgrade...

Valkey supports Redis-compatible modules to extend core database functionality with custom data types, specialized algorithms, and advanced operations. These modules are compiled as shared object (.so) files and must be loaded at server startup. Examples inclu...

Regular backups are essential when running a Valkey deployment, especially if you’re using it for persistent workloads. While Elestio provides automated backups for managed services by default, you may still want to create manual backups before major configura...

Restoring Valkey backups is critical for disaster recovery, staging environment replication, or rolling back to a known good state. Elestio supports restoration via its web dashboard and manual methods using Docker Compose and command-line tools. This guide co...

Slow commands can impact Valkey performance, especially under high concurrency or when inefficient data access patterns are used. Whether you’re running Valkey on Elestio via the dashboard, inside a Docker Compose setup, or accessing it through the CLI, Valkey...

Optimizing memory usage in Valkey is essential for maintaining performance, especially in production environments like Elestio. Without proper memory control, large datasets, long-lived keys, or inefficient operations can lead to high memory pressure, slowdown...
