Currently, the forum container uses a PostgreSQL server.
We could use it for other applications too, for example Sentry, and so run it in a separate container.
Container name: Nuern

Still to do
Import database from the forum.

PostgreSQL by default doesn't consume 2 GB of RAM for an InnoDB cache, so I'm not sure it's a good idea.

Any new deployment of Discourse, we'll take a decision where to host it.
We've a PostgreSQL cluster starting with db-A-001 available for example to decouple database from Docker, but that will be consolidated.
Services like Sentry are welcome to host all their stack including the db in containers.
Nasqueron in-house services will use an optimised cluster.
