Databases

In CS56 Spring Boot projects, we use:

• H2 in-memory database when running on localhost
• Postgres database when running on Heroku

H2 Console Access

A console is enabled at /h2-console when running with H2. However, to be able to access it in applications with logins enabled, you may have to do some configuration.
