Artifactory HA has the following database requirements:

Artifactory HA requires an external database, which is fundamental for the management of binaries and is also used to store cluster-wide configuration files.
Because Artifactory HA contains multiple cluster nodes, your database must be powerful enough to serve all nodes simultaneously and must support the maximum number of connections across all Artifactory cluster nodes.
If you are replicating your database, all nodes must see a consistent view of the database at any point in time, regardless of which database instance they access. Eventual consistency and write-behind database synchronization are not supported.
