When you install Artifactory, you may want to consider using an external database in order to enhance Artifactory’s capabilities by using a production grade database as well as utilize the best practices for Artifactory’s database.
In the following article, we will list the different types of supported databases you can use and how to configure Artifactory to connect with each one of them.
Please NOTE:
To use an external database with Artifactory, set the "postgresql.enabled" value to "false" and provide the necessary configuration details in the "database" section of the Artifactory installation. Failing to set "postgresql.enabled" to "false" will result in the internal database being used instead.
