- **Username:** The default user for all PostgreSQL Managed Databases is `linpostgres`. This replaces the `root` user, which is not accessible. Superuser access is not available.

The `linpostgres` user and default `postgres` database should be used for administrative purposes only, you can create separate users and databases for application purposes.

- **Private network host:** The fully qualified domain name you can use to reach your database cluster through the data center's private network (not a VLAN).
