Built for Developer Productivity
Everything you need to run production-ready databases and services without the operational overhead.
Lightning Fast Provisioning
Deploy PostgreSQL, MariaDB, Redis, OpenSearch, or MongoDB instances in seconds. No waiting, no setup wizards—just instant resources ready for your application.
CLI-First Workflow
Powerful command-line interface with Ed25519 authentication. Create, connect, and manage resources with simple commands. Self-updating binary keeps you current.
Secure by Design
Encrypted tunneling with Chisel, row-level security, Ed25519 key authentication, and isolated Kubernetes namespaces. Your data stays protected at every layer.
Fully Managed
Automatic backups, monitoring, updates, and partition management. We handle the operations so you can focus on building your application.
Import & Export
Seamlessly migrate existing data with built-in import/export tools. Support for SQL dumps, JSON, CSV, and native formats with automatic compression.
Event Logging & Metrics
Comprehensive event tracking and time-series metrics with automatic partitioning. Know exactly what's happening across all your resources.
Why SpotRun
Stop Managing Infrastructure.
Start Building.
SpotRun eliminates the complexity of running databases and services. No Docker compose files, no Kubernetes manifests, no cloud consoles with dozens of configuration options. Just simple commands that work.
No Configuration Required
Sensible defaults that just work. Deploy a production-ready database with a single command. Customize only what you need: CPU, memory, storage, version.
CLI + Web Console
Power users get a fast CLI with shell completion and scriptability. Visual learners get a clean web interface. Use whichever fits your workflow.
Kubernetes-Native
Built on Kubernetes for reliability and scalability, but you never touch YAML. Each resource runs in isolated namespaces with proper resource limits.
Developer-First Security
Ed25519 signatures for CLI, encrypted tunnels for connections, API keys with granular permissions. Security that enhances your workflow instead of getting in the way.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a free tier?
New users get $10 in credits to explore the platform. After that, you only pay for what you use with per-second billing. Small development databases typically cost less than $5/month.
Are backups included?
Yes! Daily automated backups are included at no extra cost. Backups are retained for 7 days. You can also create manual snapshots and export your data anytime.
Can I pause resources to save money?
Resources are billed only when running. You can stop resources when not in use and restart them instantly. Storage is billed separately so your data persists even when stopped.
How does this compare to AWS RDS?
SpotRun is typically 3-5x cheaper than AWS RDS for equivalent resources, with no setup complexity, no long-term commitments, and instant provisioning. Plus you get a powerful CLI included.
Developers Love SpotRun
Join thousands of developers who have eliminated database management overhead.
I went from idea to deployed Postgres database in literally 30 seconds. No AWS console, no Terraform, no Docker Compose. Just `spot new postgres mydb` and I'm coding.
Sarah Jenkins
Full-Stack Developer
The secure tunneling is a game-changer. I can connect my local app to a production-grade database without messing with firewall rules or exposing ports. Security done right.

DevOps Engineer
Finally, managed databases that don't cost an arm and a leg. We moved 12 databases from AWS RDS and cut our monthly bill by 70%. Same performance, zero maintenance headaches.
