# Databases
There are some database technologies available on Thunix.
* MySQL/MariaDB
* Sqlite
## Sqlite
In the spirit of minimalism, the recommended database technology to use here is sqlite. Sqlite DB's exist as a single, atomic file, and are a good use for light applications, with low to medium concurrent loads.
As an example, [tildegit](https://tildegit.org) is backed by a sqlite database. It also allows for greater flexibility, and segregation for your application's data: You can create as many sqlite databases as you need.
## MySQL/MariaDB
We have MariaDB server running on Thunix, and should you desire, we can provision a database for you. In order to minimize admin overhead, the database will be named the same as your user account. It's recommended that in order to segregate your applications in the single DB, use table-prefixes.
### Requesting a MySQL/MariaDB Database
Either opening an issue on [tildegit](https://tildegit.org/thunix), shooting an email to root, or asking in IRC is the way to get a DB created for your.
### Admin notes
The makedb and dbremove commands are used to create and destroy their respective databases. See [makedb](/wiki/makedb) and [dbremove](/wiki/dbremove) for more information.

# Iris
Iris is a command-line based forum software. If you've ever used a BBS in the past, you'll fine this interface quite similar to forums of that style. Not quite as complicated as bboard.
## Usage
To use iris, once logged into your shell account, just type `iris`.
Once there, type `t` to see the topics. To read a topic, just type the topic number. To reply, `r` followed by the topic number.
To quite, just type `q`.
