# Configuring PostgreSQL for scaling
In this section, you'll be guided through configuring a PostgreSQL database to
2021-01-03 14:25:43 +05:30
be used with GitLab in one of our [reference architectures](../reference_architectures/index.md).
2020-07-28 23:09:34 +05:30
There are essentially three setups to choose from.
2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
## PostgreSQL replication and failover with Omnibus GitLab **(PREMIUM SELF)**
2020-07-28 23:09:34 +05:30
This setup is for when you have installed GitLab using the
[Omnibus GitLab **Enterprise Edition** (EE) package](https://about.gitlab.com/install/?version=ee).
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
All the tools that are needed like PostgreSQL, PgBouncer, Patroni, and repmgr are bundled in
2020-07-28 23:09:34 +05:30
the package, so you can it to set up the whole PostgreSQL infrastructure (primary, replica).

2021-03-11 19:13:27 +05:30
## Standalone PostgreSQL using Omnibus GitLab **(FREE SELF)**
2020-07-28 23:09:34 +05:30
This setup is for when you have installed the
[Omnibus GitLab packages](https://about.gitlab.com/install/) (CE or EE),
to use the bundled PostgreSQL having only its service enabled.

## Provide your own PostgreSQL instance **(FREE SELF)**
2020-07-28 23:09:34 +05:30
This setup is for when you have installed GitLab using the
[Omnibus GitLab packages](https://about.gitlab.com/install/) (CE or EE),
or installed it [from source](../../install/installation.md), but you want to use
your own external PostgreSQL server.
