 > This is the guide on how to configure **Unleash v4 self-hosted**. If you are still using Unleash v3 you should checkout [configuring Unleash v3](./configuring_unleash_v3)
 
 ## Must configure
 
-### Database details {#database-details}
+### Database
 
-In order for Unleash server to work, you must setup database connection details.
-
-- If using docker, use environment variables
-  - `DATABASE_HOST` - the database hostname - defaults to `localhost`
-  - `DATABASE_PORT` - the port the database is listening on - defaults to `5432`
-  - `DATABASE_USERNAME` - the user configured for access - defaults to `unleash_user`
-  - `DATABASE_PASSWORD` - the password for the user - defaults to `passord` (the Norwegian word for _password_)
-  - `DATABASE_NAME` - the name of the database - defaults to `unleash`
-  - `DATABASE_SSL` - a json object representing SSL configuration or `false` for not using SSL
-  - `DATABASE_SCHEMA` - Which schema to use - defaults to `public`
-- We also support `DATABASE_URL` see [libpq's doc](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/libpq-connect.html#LIBPQ-CONNSTRING) for full format explanation. In short: `postgres://USER:PASSWORD@HOST:PORT/DATABASE`
-- If you're using secret files from kubernetes and would like to load a `DATABASE_URL` format from a file, use `DATABASE_URL_FILE` and point it to a path containing a connection URL.
+In order for Unleash server to work, you need a running database and its connection details. See the [database configuration section](#database-configuration) for the available options and configuration details.

 If you want to read content from a file, you should either initialize Unleash via JavaScript or manually interpolate the required values into the environment variable:

 ### Enabling self-signed certificates
 
+
 To use self-signed certificates, you should set the SSL property `rejectUnauthorized` to `false` and set the `ca` property to the value of the certificate:
