I’m a beginner and I’m struggling to set it up and not sure which files or settings need to be changed. Can I deploy my application without this configuration, or is PostgreSQL mandatory for production?
I’d recommend taking a look at this and follow the steps: Database configuration | Bonita Documentation
The default H2 database should not be use on production, it is for testing purposes only. If you’re using Bonita Community Edition you may use PostgreSQL.
Hope this helps.
Cheers!

The only information provided in this link is to edit postgresql.conf and set a non-zero value for max_prepared_transactions. However, I need guidance on the exact configuration required in Bonita to make this work. Could you please provide a step-by-step guide to configure it properly and explain how I can test it? I would really appreciate your help
I’ve created a 
short video to better explain how to achieve this configuration: https://youtu.be/C2N092D_K98
To make it easier, I will be using a PostgreSQL Docker image that already contains all the necessary configuration for Bonita (available on Github). I have previously created a Docker image with a Bonita application using Bonita 2023.2. I am using docker compose.
Useful links:
Database configuration documentation: Database configuration | Bonita Documentation
Deploying Bonita with Docker: Deploy Bonita Runtime with Docker | Bonita Documentation
Hope this helps.
Cheers!
