The '''Database''' you choose is up to you. In our experience PostgreSQL achieves a better performance but needs more resources.

In Production mode, your pod is configured to deal with high load for everyday usage. This is recommended for a pod you want to actually use.

In Development mode, your pod is configured for development. This is recommended ony for development contributors of diaspora* which use the pod only locally for testing purposes.

For Database, choose PostgreSQL unless you already have an existing database server that you want to re-use. We recommend an isolated PostgreSQL installation exclusively for your pod.

The current guide is for a production setup with PostgreSQL as database.
