## Hyperdrive now supports custom TLS/SSL certificates for MySQL

Mar 19, 2026 

[ Hyperdrive ](https://edgetunnel-b2h.pages.dev/hyperdrive/) 

Hyperdrive now supports custom TLS/SSL certificates for MySQL databases, bringing the same certificate options previously available for PostgreSQL to MySQL connections.

You can now configure:

* **Server certificate verification** with `VERIFY_CA` or `VERIFY_IDENTITY` SSL modes to verify that your MySQL database server's certificate is signed by the expected certificate authority (CA).
* **Client certificates** (mTLS) for Hyperdrive to authenticate itself to your MySQL database with credentials beyond username and password.

Create a Hyperdrive configuration with custom certificates for MySQL:

```bash
# Upload a CA certificate
npx wrangler cert upload certificate-authority --ca-cert your-ca-cert.pem --name your-custom-ca-name


# Create a Hyperdrive with VERIFY_IDENTITY mode
npx wrangler hyperdrive create your-hyperdrive-config \
  --connection-string="mysql://user:password@hostname:port/database" \
  --ca-certificate-id <CA_CERT_ID> \
  --sslmode VERIFY_IDENTITY
```
