Learn how to create a MySQL database on your Managed Dedicated Server.

With MySQL, your managed server has a powerful database system. Many popular applications, such as the Content Management System (CMS) Joomla, are optimized to work with MySQL databases. When you create a new database in 1&1 IONOS, the latest version of MySQL available for your package is automatically selected.

  • Step 1

  • Log in to 1&1 IONOS and select Hosting from the My Products menus.

  • Step 2

  • Select your Managed Dedicated Server package.

  • Step 3

  • Click the Manage button in the Databases section.

  • Step 4

  • Click the Create Database button.

  • Step 5

  • Enter a password. Optionally, you can also define a description for the database to be created. To create the database, click Save.

  • Now the access data will be displayed.

  • Hint: You can view them again at any time by clicking Actions > Display Details from the MySQL Databases overview page.
