External Database

Nomadesk uses a PostgreSQL database to store it's user data, it is possible to use your own external PostgreSQL.

Support Versions​

The supported versions are any version that is not EOL and supported by the PostgreSQL team

Required Permissions​

The Nomadesk Private Software Appliance installer expects an empty database with a user supplied that is allowed to create databases and users.

For security this user will only be used so that a user and database can be created for each of the Nomadesk services.
These new users will not be able to access anything except their own data set.
