Confluence 3.5 : Database Configuration
This page last changed on Jan 26, 2011 by smaddox.
This document provides information on configuring an external database. The Embedded Database for Evaluation PurposesThe Confluence installation includes an embedded HSQLDB database, supplied for the purpose of evaluating Confluence. If you are using the embedded database, the database files are stored in the \database folder under your Confluence Home directory. See also Important Directories and Files.
Selecting an External DatabaseThe XML backup built into Confluence is not well suited for database migration for large data sets (see Production Backup Strategy). Choose your database wisely. If you need to migrate later, Atlassian support will refer you to a third party database migration tool. Vote for CONF-12599 to add a more robust strategy for large implementation migrations. Below is more information on selecting and migrating to an external database: Database SetupSetup instructions are shown below.
