MyDBA's core analysis runs on PostgreSQL telemetry, rules, and heuristics. AI is an extra tool you can choose for deeper explanations, tuning reviews, query-plan interpretation, and incident narratives.
Many teams are cautious about sending database context to AI. MyDBA is built so the always-on DBA layer works without AI, while manual AI actions are available when the extra interpretation is worth it.
Choose a connection and manually ask AI to review configuration, workload, indexes, vacuum, wait events, and plan regressions — then produce a ranked tuning analysis grounded in collected evidence.
The core product does not depend on AI. Health checks, phantom incidents, query analysis, and insights are driven by collected PostgreSQL telemetry, rules, and heuristics.
Use AI for extra explanation of an EXPLAIN plan, query rewrite, index idea, or tuning recommendation. The output references the real metadata and stats MyDBA has collected.
Use your own OpenRouter, Anthropic or OpenAI key with no MyDBA monthly AI quota; provider billing and limits apply. Keys are encrypted at rest and used only for your org's requests.
New Pro subscriptions include 20 platform-funded AI operations per organization per UTC month. Bring your own key on Free or Pro for unlimited product usage, with provider charges billed separately.
Organization admins can enable or disable AI features per organization. Useful for regulated environments, customer demos, or staged rollouts to your team.
AI responses are designed to add depth to existing findings: what changed, why it matters, what risk exists, and which SQL, config change, or work-plan step to review next.
AI requests use relevant collected query text, plans, metadata and metrics. Diagnostic context can contain sensitive values or identifiers; review your collection and provider settings.
MyDBA does not silently send your database context to an LLM in the background. AI is a deliberate action, controlled by organization settings and user choice.
