Database

Overview

Yucca requires a database to operate. By default, this is Sqlite, and the database file is stored in the state_dir directory. Sqlite is sufficient for working with a small number of cameras and motion events, plus no additional configuration is required. However, for production environments with a large number of cameras (more than 10) and motion detection enabled, we recommend using PostgreSQL as a more performant database.
