SeAT relies **heavily** on a database to function. Everything it learns is stored here, along with things such as user accounts for your users.
It comes without saying that database security is a very important aspect too. So, ensure that you choose very strong passwords for your installation where required.

This document describes using MariaDB, but you can use MySQL as well. Just double check the [requirements](requirements.md).
SeAT officially supports just MariaDB. Using MySQL or PostreSQL might appear to work on the surface, however it is likely that you will run into issues due to differences between the databases later down the line, and almost no testing with them is done during development.

We need to ensure that we have the latest MariaDB installed. To help with this, MariaDB provides an official repository to get the latest versions.

#### EVE Sde Update

SeAT makes use of a number of tables from the EVE [Static Data Exports](https://developers.eveonline.com/resource/resources). MySQL conversions of this data is available at [https://www.fuzzwork.co.uk/dump/](https://www.fuzzwork.co.uk/dump/) and used in SeAT.

Software version requirements are based on a *minimum* requirement.

| Type | Requirement | State Check |
| -------------------------- |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| ----------- |
| Operating System | Linux (any distribution is suitable, however, Ubuntu tends to get more up-to-date packages on official repositories). | Usually, running `cat /etc/issue` should give you a good idea. |

| PHP | [PHP: ^8.3](http://php.net/) including mysql, gd, bz2, intl, pcntl, gmp, openssl, zip, opcache and redis extensions | `php -v` and `php -i` |
