Database management

You can now manage your Vertica database with the Node Management Agent (NMA).

Node Management Agent

You can now manage your Vertica database with the Node Management Agent (NMA). The NMA provides a REST API for administrating your nodes, which can be easier to integrate with and use in cases where you cannot use ssh to connect to a Vertica node.

The current iteration of the NMA is suitable for basic and general cluster management tasks. Future versions will add endpoints and utilities to support more complex workflows.

For details, see Node Management Agent.

HTTPS service

You can now manage your Vertica database with the HTTPS service. The HTTPS service provides a REST API for managing your database and accessing server, cluster, and host metrics in Prometheus exposition format.

The HTTPS service requires that you configure mutual mode TLS (mTLS). For details, see HTTPS service.
