-=== Seed from URI
-
-This method seeds all servers with an identical seed from an external source, specified by the URI.
-The seed can either be a full backup, a differential backup (see xref:clustering/databases.adoc#cloud-seed-provider[`CloudSeedProvider`]), or a dump from an existing database.
-The sources of seeds are called _seed providers_.
-
-The mechanism is pluggable, allowing new sources of seeds to be supported (see link:https://www.neo4j.com/docs/java-reference/current/extending-neo4j/project-setup/#extending-neo4j-plugin-seed-provider[Java Reference -> Implement custom seed providers] for more information).
-The product has built-in support for seed from a mounted file system (file), FTP server, HTTP/HTTPS server, Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, and Azure Cloud Storage.
-
-[NOTE]
-====
-Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, and Azure Cloud Storage are supported by default, but the other providers require configuration of xref:configuration/configuration-settings.adoc#config_dbms.databases.seed_from_uri_providers[`dbms.databases.seed_from_uri_providers`].
-====
-
-The URI of the seed is specified when the `CREATE DATABASE` command is issued:
-
-[source, cypher, role="noplay"]
-----
-CREATE DATABASE foo OPTIONS {existingData: 'use', seedURI:'s3://myBucket/myBackup.backup'}
-----
-
-Download and validation of the seed is only performed as the new database is started.
-If it fails, the database is not available and it has the `statusMessage`: `Unable to start database` of the `SHOW DATABASES` command.

-----
-
-`S3SeedProvider` also requires passing in credentials.
-These are specified with the `seedCredentials` option.
-Seed credentials are securely passed from the Cypher command to each server hosting the database.
-For this to work, Neo4j on each server in the cluster must be configured with identical keystores.
-This is identical to the configuration required by remote aliases, see xref:database-administration/aliases/remote-database-alias-configuration.adoc#remote-alias-config-DBMS_admin-A[Configuration of DBMS with remote database alias].
