PlanetScale for Enterprise
The most reliable way to scale your MySQL database in the cloud. Our Enterprise plan gives you horizontal sharding, access to Vitess experts, a private Slack channel with our staff, the option to run in your own AWS or GCP account, and more.
Vertical and horizontal sharding assistance
With our Enterprise plan, we work with you to analyze your query patterns, perform load testing, and assist you in designing a performant sharding scheme. Break free of the storage, write throughput, QPS, and connection limitations of vanilla MySQL with a fully-managed Vitess offering that scales with your business.
Enterprise support
We carry the pager for your database and provide fast response times. Work with our team of MySQL and Vitess experts during migration and load testing. Chat directly with your customer support engineers over Slack. We take a proactive approach to managing your database.
Bring your own cloud
PlanetScale Managed is a packaged data plane, built on Vitess and Kubernetes, that's deployed to an AWS sub-account or GCP project that you own and we operate. Your database lives entirely inside a dedicated sub-account or project within your cloud organization.
Custom pricing
Enterprise plan pricing can be customized to better suit your needs. Bulk discounts from the list price are available. You can purchase through AWS/GCP Marketplace, and the resources you use on PlanetScale will qualify against your EDP commitment.
Vitess expertise
PlanetScale was founded by the co-creators of Vitess, and we employ the majority of the core maintainers of the project. If you're looking for the best way to run Vitess with access to Vitess experts, PlanetScale is your best bet. With PlanetScale, you gain direct access to Vitess experts for support.
Close partnership
When you choose PlanetScale, your success is our success. We partner closely with you to ensure your database is prepared for any activity. Whether you're an e-commerce platform preparing for record-breaking Black Friday sales or a gaming studio releasing a new game expected to get 50x more traffic than usual, you can count on us to make sure your database can handle the load.
Who is PlanetScale Enterprise for?
PlanetScale Enterprise comes with a number of benefits that large organizations need for dependable database systems. Ultra-fast response times for critical issues, direct communication with your assigned support engineers, vertical and horizontal sharding, the option to run in your own cloud, and more.
However, not all organizations need an Enterprise plan. We will not recommend an Enterprise plan if you don't need it, and we will let you know in the first evaluation call if we think Scaler Pro is a better choice for you. What makes a customer a good fit for an Enterprise plan?
- You have stringent high-availability requirements, and want the best possible response times from our team of customer engineers and Vitess experts. All enterprise plans come with business-level support. Enterprise support comes at an additional cost.
- You would like help migrating your data and getting expert advice on how best to size and optimize your PlanetScale cluster to maximize performance.
- You want expert assistance sharding your data across multiple MySQL servers. PlanetScale Enterprise support engineers will work with you to get your data optimally sharded, size your shards, and get you into production.
- You want to run PlanetScale in your own AWS or GCP account. This can be accomplished with our PlanetScale Managed product offering, only available to our Enterprise customers. Enterprise customers can also run a single-tenant database in our AWS or GCP account.
