# Databases
We currently support the following databases and they are passed in via the `DB` environment variable. For example:
```sh
docker run -e "DB=postgres://user:pass@localhost:6212/mydb" ...
```
## [Bolt](https://github.com/boltdb/bolt) (default)
URL: `bolt:///functions/data/functions.db`
Bolt is an embedded database which stores to disk. If you want to use this, be sure you don't lose the data directory by mounting
the directory on your host. eg: `docker run -v $PWD/data:/functions/data -e DB=bolt:///functions/data/bolt.db ...`

## [Redis](http://redis.io/)
URL: `redis://localhost:6379/`
Use a Redis instance as your database. Be sure to enable [peristence](http://redis.io/topics/persistence).

## [PostgreSQL](http://www.postgresql.org/)
URL: `postgres://user123:pass456@ec2-117-21-174-214.compute-1.amazonaws.com:6212/db982398`
Use a PostgreSQL database. If you're using IronFunctions in production, you should probably start here.

## What about database X?
We're happy to add more and we love pull requests, so feel free to add one! Copy one of the implementations above as a starting point.
