# Store release information in an SQL database
You may be willing to store release information in an SQL database - in
particular, if your releases weigh more than 1MB and therefore [can't be stored in ConfigMaps or Secrets](https://github.com/helm/helm/issues/1413).
We recommend using [PostgreSQL](https://www.postgresql.org/).
This document describes how to deploy `postgres` atop Kubernetes. This being
said, using an out-of-cluster (managed or not) PostreSQL instance is totally
possible as well.
Here's a Kubernetes manifest you can apply to get a minimal PostreSQL pod
running on your Kubernetes cluster. **Don't forget to change the credentials
and, optionally, enable TLS in production deployments**.
```yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: tiller-postgres
namespace: kube-system
spec:
ports:
- port: 5432
selector:
app: helm
name: postgres
---
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: StatefulSet
metadata:
name: tiller-postgres
namespace: kube-system
spec:
serviceName: tiller-postgres
selector:
matchLabels:
app: helm
name: postgres
replicas: 1
template:

app: helm

volumeClaimTemplates:
- metadata:

spec:
accessModes: ["ReadWriteOnce"]
storageClassName: default
resources:
requests:
storage: 5Gi
```
Once postgres is deployed, you'll need to install Tiller using `helm init`, with
a few custom CLI flags:
```shell
helm init \
--override \
'spec.template.spec.containers[0].args'='{--storage=sql,--sql-dialect=postgres,--sql-connection-string=postgresql://tiller-postgres:5432/helm?user=helm&password=changemeforgodssake&sslmode=disable}'
```
