Exploring your post-installation options v1.3.4

Overview

Role: Infrastructure Engineer / Platform Administrator

Prerequisites

Outcomes

  • A fully configured HM environment with security integrations, AI capabilities, and monitoring enabled.

Next Phase: Using Hybrid Manager

Now that the HM Control Plane is running, you can enable optional but critical integrations. While the platform is functional without these, configuring them now ensures your environment is production-ready for security, AI workloads, and observability.

Unlock AI capabilities: Complete GenAI Builder setup

Set up notifications (Observability)

Ensure your team is alerted to critical events (such as cluster failovers, backup failures, or capacity issues). HM allows you to configure notification channels globally or per project.

Supported channels:

Monitor external databases (Observability)

HM can monitor Postgres databases that it does not manage (examples: RDS, self-managed EC2, or on-prem instances).

To enable this, you must install the Beacon Agent on the external database host.

The agent collects metrics and logs, shipping them back to the HM control plane for centralized visualization.

Enable Migration Co-pilot

To use the AI-assisted Migration Co-pilot, you must apply specific secrets and configurations to the control plane.

This feature assists in analyzing and converting schemas from legacy databases to EDB Postgres.

Next steps

Your HM platform is now fully deployed and integrated. You are ready to onboard users and begin provisioning clusters.
