• through the connection string-- using this option, you need to configure specific parameters at the same time you also need to have some database connection aspects just to build the correct connection URL.

Based on the type you set, you need to provide some of the following parameters.

Easy (Simple)	Host name (Hostname)	The host name or IP address used by your database server.

Through the connection string (by connection string)	Database URL (db URL)	The database URL uses the following format: jdbc:mysql:// For example: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/confluence
