Placement of the delete database button
We would like to see a delete button inside the database options list to prevent accidental deletion of a database (Remove the delete button located at the database name level in the GUI. So that the delete button is located as in older versions.).
2 votesThank you for your feedback. At this point, the phpMyAdmin and Database deletion buttons at the upper right corner will remain as they are because this aligns better with the elements used in Dynamic List view in terms of consistency with the rest of the Plesk interface. Nevertheless, we appreciate your input.

Compatibility of MariaDB Upgrade Feature with CloudLinux
I would like to request compatibility between the MariaDB upgrade feature recently developed by Plesk and CloudLinux. The current upgrade feature is excellent for simplifying and enhancing the security of MariaDB upgrades, but it unfortunately does not support CloudLinux, which many users rely on for stability, security, and ease of use.
Ensuring compatibility with CloudLinux would greatly benefit users who use both platforms, making database upgrades smoother and reducing the need for complex, manual procedures. I also believe that providing specific documentation on database restoration, in case of upgrade failures during a manual process, would add considerable value for users,…
1 voteHello, thanks for your input! Unfortunately, we declined this request. CloudLinux provides own tools to upgrade MariaDB safely. Please check CloudLinux solution "Governor"

Data Storage Challenges with Plesk – Any Advice?
Hello everyone,
I’m currently working on data storage [https://www.lenovo.com/au/en/servers-storage/solutions/data-storage/] solutions and am exploring how Plesk can be used to manage and optimize storage. While Plesk offers various tools for managing data and storage environments, I’m facing some challenges in fully utilizing its features.
Here are a few areas where I’m seeking advice:
Storage Management Best Practices: What are the best practices for managing data storage using Plesk? Are there any common pitfalls or tips for effective storage management?
Performance Optimization: How can I optimize the performance of my data storage setup with Plesk? Any recommendations for improving efficiency…1 voteThank you for your input. UserVoice is intended for feature requests and product improvement ideas. Thus, if you are seeking advice it will be best to consider our Forum page ( https://talk.plesk.com/ ) or Support team ( https://support.plesk.com ).

Bulk remove databases from subscriptions that no longer exists in the database server
As seen on https://stackoverflow.com/questions/77681371/are-there-any-methods-to-initiate-a-database-synchronization-process-in-plesk it should be possible to auto-remove databases from the Plesk configuration (psa table) that no longer exist in the database server.
Example: A user has removed databases with "drop database" in the database server shell directly. Such databases are still references in the psa database and are displayed as available databases to GUI users. Such orphants should be removed either automatically (e.g. by nighty maintenance) or by a user command.

MariaDB Xpand. Horizontal Scaling of Both Writes & Reads.
MariaDB Xpand Database. Horizontal Scaling of Both Writes & Reads.
Horizontal Scaling Secret #1: Automatic Data Distribution
As tables and indexes are created, they are automatically “sliced” and distributed across all the nodes in the cluster. This distribution utilizes 64 bit consistent hashing based on the data keys, so each slice’s location is predictable, as well as what data it contains, from a simple metadata map. So any transaction running on any node can access any data on the cluster from at most a single hop away, and the “lookup” to find that data is a local in-memory table in…
1 voteMariaDB Xpand is typically intended for high scalability and availability in clustered environments. While technically it might be possible for integration with major manual effort, it doesn't sound practical for the main purpose of Plesk. Considering the low demand this request got over the course of two years, we are closing it.

Allow creation of database users on different database servers configured on Plesk
In case when more than one database server are available on the Plesk server, e.g two or more MSSQL servers, it is possible to enable the "Database server selection" option on the subscriptions's service plan which allows creation of databases and database users on any database server available by default
It would be great, however, if the ability to create databases and database users on all database servers available were enabled separately, like below:
Option on service plan to allow creation of databases on any database server available, in case this option disabled, the subscription would be able to create…

Avoidance of special characters in database names when database is created
Disallowing using special characters (period, minus, backtick) in database names when database is created. This would reduce database errors caused by database names in wrong format.
2 votesThe database server defines, what a wrong identifier format is, and for MariaDB for example, dashes and periods are allowed https://mariadb.com/kb/en/identifier-names/ . Backticks are already exluded in the Plesk GUI from database names, but at the moment there is no reason to limit the name more than what the database server allows. An artificially imposed limit will for sure trigger requests by other users to allow at least all the characters that the database server allows. For that reason, this feature request must be declined.

Table for databases
A table in the Databases section where you can enter all values like memory and upload amount. So you could optimize the allocation of the working memory better. But also see what values each web page or database has.

If you cannot replace this system with the previous (much more intuitive) system; then perhaps you can have a sort and search facility.
If you cannot replace this system with the previous (much more intuitive) system; then perhaps you can have a sort and search facility in this supposed 'upgrade'. I have over two thousand e-mail addresses on my mailing-list. Administering it has - with the introduction of this new system - become a nightmare!
