# 5. PostgreSQL
|
|
|
|
Date: 2022-08-09
|
|
|
|
## Status
|
|
|
|
Accepted
|
|
|
|
## Context
|
|
|
|
Our choices of which database engine to use are presently limited by our desire to use cloud.gov for deployment.
|
|
|
|
Cloud.gov supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Oracle.
|
|
|
|
Oracle may be subject to licensing fees.
|
|
|
|
## Decision
|
|
|
|
To use PostgreSQL.
|
|
|
|
## Consequences
|
|
|
|
All three options are approximately equally capable. The number of CVEs filed against each project differs, but not by any order of magnitude.
|
|
|
|
The advanced administrative features of each database are not available in cloud.gov, so there is little reason to prefer one option over any other.
