How to review the database properties:

  • Login to the control panel
  • Click your hosting space in the "Hosting Spaces" section
  • From the top menu bar, go to Hosting Space menu > Databases > SQL (version number)
  • Click the database you are working with from the database list
  • You will see an "Internal address" and an "External address", Use the internal for code hosted on our servers. Use the External for code hosted outside our network or for SQL management Studio connectivity. Attempting to use the external address internally will result in a connection error.


SQL servers are assigned on a per space basis and can change from one hosting space to the next, so please be sure to always check what database server your new database is on as it may not be the same as the previous one.
