# FAQ
A Database can be provisioned in three ways on Aptible:
* Within the Aptible Dashboard by
* Selecting an existing [Environment](/docs/core-concepts/architecture/environments)
* Selecting the **Databases** tab
* Selecting **Create Database**
* Note: STFP Databases cannot be provisioned via the Aptible Dashboard
* Using the [`aptible db:create`](/docs/reference/aptible-cli/cli-commands/cli-db-create) command
* Using the Aptible [Terraform Provider](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/aptible/aptible/latest/docs)
Database handles cannot start with `internal-` or `sg-` prefixes. Refer to [Managing Databases](/docs/core-concepts/managed-databases/managing-databases/overview) for more information about naming restrictions.
