Create a service

Create the service of your choice at any point, using the Aiven Console.

  1. From your project, in the Services page, click Create service.

  2. From the Select service page, click the service type of your choice.

  3. Select the cloud provider and region to host your service on.

    note

    The pricing for the same service can vary between different providers and regions. The service summary shows you the pricing for your selected options.

  4. Select a service plan.

    note

    This determines the number of servers and the memory, CPU, and disk resources allocated to your service. See Plans & Pricing.

  5. Optional: Add disk storage.

  6. Enter a name for your service.

    important

    You cannot change the name after you create the service.

    You can fork the service with a new name instead.

  7. Optional: Add tags.

  8. Click Create service.

The Overview page of the service opens. It shows the connection parameters for your service, its current status, and the configuration options.

The status of the service is Rebuilding during its creation. When the status becomes Running, you can start using the service. This typically takes couple of minutes and can vary between cloud providers and regions.
