Once you have successfully changed the password for the first time, you can use the password for subsequent logins.

Manage Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)

Multi-factor authentication adds additional security by requiring an Authenticator app to generate a one-time verification code for login.

When you log in, VeloDB Cloud verifies both your password and the MFA verification code.

You can use any Authenticator app from the iOS or Android App Store to generate this password, such as Google Authenticator and Authy.

Users, organizations, authorized warehouses, cluster operations, and alarms in the platform will be notified to remind users when they are triggered.

You can switch to the Scheduled Events page to see scheduled events.

Scheduled events include system-initiated events (for example, the system automatically upgrades the core version according to the policy set by the user) and user-initiated events (for example, manually upgrading the core version by specifying an execution time window).

Some events (such as version upgrades) may cause disconnection and other impacts on the business. Please ensure that the business has the reconnection mechanism.

Before the event is executed, you can modify the scheduled execution time window or cancel the event.

Organization Management

Organization is the billing unit. Each organization will be billed individually. We recommend that you divide organizations by cost unit, and one user can be affiliated to multiple organizations.

Multiple warehouses can be created under one organization, and the data of different warehouses are isolated.

You can switch the current organization in the menu bar - switch organization in the user menu.
