Single MySQL Database
Use this guide when users need one MySQL instance with persistent storage and simple internal access.
Recommended deployment mode: Single Database. This is a good fit for development, staging, and smaller production workloads.
Provisioning Flow
Start a Database Deployment
Open the database flow in Autonomous instead of the source-code deployment flow.
Select MySQL
Choose MySQL, then define version, database name, user, password, storage size, and target environment.
Choose Single Instance
Select the standalone topology so Autonomous provisions one stateful database node with persistent storage.
Validate Connectivity
Once ready, confirm internal access, credentials, and storage attachment from the dashboard.
Common User Mistakes
- Weak or reused passwords
- Under-sized storage
- Applications still using outdated credentials after rotation
