The [Redis Cloud Vercel integration](https://vercel.com/marketplace/redis-cloud) lets you create a new Redis database from your Vercel account and connect it to your Vercel project(s).

## Create database

1. Log in to your Vercel account (or create a new one).

1. Navigate to the **Storage** tab and select **Create database**.

    More configuration options are coming soon, such as region selection and multi-zone high availability.

1. Enter your database name or use the automatically generated name.

1. Select **Create**.

## Connect to your database

After creation, you will see your database details. After provisioning is complete, the status will change from `Initializing` to `Available` (you may need to refresh your browser).

## Manage your database

From the database details page, you can make edits to your database under **Settings**.

More configuration options are coming soon, including plan changes, multi-zone high availability, and region selection.

### Configure from Redis Cloud

You can also edit some configuration options in Redis Cloud.

From the database detail page, select **Open in Redis Cloud**.

Your Redis Cloud account is linked to your Vercel account. All your team's Redis databases will be listed under **Databases** in Redis Cloud.

Select your new database to make configuration changes such as passwords or the eviction policy.

{{<note>}} The [eviction policy]({{<relref "/operate/rc/databases/configuration/data-eviction-policies">}}) defaults to `no eviction` for new databases.  You can change this by [editing the database details]({{<relref "/operate/rc/databases/view-edit-database">}}).{{</note>}}
