  2. Create .7Z dumps of databases

    Within Plesk it is possible to create a dump of a (SQL Server) database. Plesk then seems to use 7Zip to create a .ZIP file. It would be nice if it was possible to choose between the .ZIP or the .7Z file format as .ZIP is more compatible, but 7Z compresses such database dumps up to 10 times better.
    And of course you would need to be able to import 7Zipped dumps also.

  4. MySQL change the charset

    Allow to chose another charset when creating a database or do not set one.

    Plesk does use:
    "CREATE DATABASE databasename /*!40101 default charset=utf8 */"
    And with this does overwrite when the MySQL config was changed to use utf8mb4 for example.

    Or allow to choose a charset on creation or create DBs with:
    "CREATE DATABASE databasename"

  5. Mass import database dump

    There are scenarios where multiple databases for multiple domains have to be restored.

    In such cases, it would be great to be able to mass import dumps from database backup files instead of going one by one manually importing them on a domain basis

  7. Add new database formats to ODBC Data Sources menu

    Add .accdb and newer Excel versions to ODBC DSN. Currently, only .mdb and .xls up to Excel 8.0 are available (beside MySQL). Newer versions of database file formats should be supported by this feature.

  8. Restore PostgreSQL databases that has some objects owned by postgres user from Plesk Backup

    It would be great to have an ability to restore PostgreSQL databases that has some objects owned by postgres user from Plesk Backup. As of now, backup is created without any errors, however it is not possible to restore the database because restoration is done not in behalf of postgres user.

    Or at least have a warning when backup is created that I have to restore the database as a postgres user from the command line and do not rely on backup of the database created via backup manager.

  9. Add the ability to encrypt a Database via Plesk interface

    Add the ability to encrypt databases as Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) via Plesk interface, which is supported in MariaDB 10.1 and later.

    At-rest encryption means the data files and logs are encrypted on the disk and makes it almost impossible for someone to access or steal a hard disk and get access to the original data (provided that the key is secured and not stored locally).

  10. Incorporate the default collation setting as a feature in the "Tools & Settings: Database Servers: Database Hosting Settings" section.

    It should be a simple matter to incorporate the default collation as a feature in the "Tools & Settings: Database Servers: Database Hosting Settings" section. This also needs to be available as an option when a WordPress site is set up within Plesk.

  12. Allow @% in MySQL username

    For external databases, I can connect to my server, but when I need to add a new user my SaaS database provider from Azure requires the username have an @%. Because of that the connection string in Plesk never works and fails every deployment of any CMS.

    If you mean PostgreSQL, we support 9.4 version in the current 12.5 version – https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/12.5/software-requirements/#s4-2-1 and upcoming Plesk Onyx – https://docs.plesk.com/release-notes/17.0/software-requirements/#s4-2-1

    We will officially support next versions if many people will support your request. But I think that you can try to use 9.5 version right now. It should work, but we have not tested it yet.

  14. Better Database Server Assignment / Visibility

    Currently you only have the option to do nothing and "SHOW ALL" database servers or restrict to a single database server per subscription by using the permissions tab. This means each user that falls under this criteria need a custom service plan.

    We would like to display more than a single database server for clients that choose to pay extra for an additional database server that only they can use. Some projects grow and they need an additional database server - or in some cases they need to migrate data between the old database server (sometimes local to plesk server)…

  19. Install MySQL Connector/ODBC 8.0 to support modern TLS versions and ciphers

    (This is related to https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/44353242-add-mariadb-connector-odbc)

    > Drivers

    MySQL Connector/ODBC version 8 needs to be available to Plesk users, because 5.3 is outdated, not to mention 3.51.

    In MySQL Connector/ODBC, there is support for new, modern TLS versions and ciphers.

    https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/encrypted-connection-protocols-ciphers.html
    > As of MySQL 8.0.26, the TLSv1 and TLSv1.1 connection
    > protocols are deprecated and support for them is subject to
    > removal in a future version of MySQL. See Deprecated
    > TLS Protocols.

    And please remove MySQL Connector/ODBC 3.51. I cannot think of any reason Plesk should rely on, or support, this version. The following runs perfectly in…

  20. Add MariaDB Connector/ODBC

    > Drivers

    With MySQL and MariaDB going their own way more and more, it is important to add MariaDB Connector/ODBC as an programming interface to Plesk as well. Side by side with the already available MySQL Connector/ODBC. This is easily done.

    One cannot guarantee MySQL Connector/ODBC to be compatible with MariaDB in the near future.

    Download MariaDB Connector/ODBC from here:
    https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb-connector-odbc-3113-release-notes/
