## Direct access

{{< callout type="warning">}}

{{< /callout>}}

All our dedicated MySQL databases are served via a proxy. To reduce the latency you can bypass this proxy by generating direct hostname and port for the addon. You can do it by clicking the "Generate direct hostname and port" on the addon dashboard.

This action will add new environment variables to reach the addon without any proxy.
