Documentation missing regarding the use of other databases than SQLite

Open jahway603 opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

  • I can not find any Documentation regarding the use of other databases than SQLite, such as MariaDB/mySQL or PostgreSQL
  • There is also no documentation available for a sys admin to switch from SQLite to a different database

Hi @jahway603, did you check https://github.com/etesync/server/wiki/Migration-from-SQLite-to-PostgreSQL ?

Thanks @daftaupe , I must've missed that. I also found this link where a sys admin sets up MariaDB (mySQL).

It's still not clear from any documentation why a sys admin would switch from the default SQLite database.

SQLite is great and is probably all you need if you have a small amount (<10) users, probably also if you have <100.
