# Database

- [Configuration](https://adamite.gitbook.io/docs/server/database/configuration.md): By default, Adamite will attempt to connect to a locally running RethinkDB instance on the default port of 28015. You can change this within the adamite.js config file.
- [Using different adapters](https://adamite.gitbook.io/docs/server/database/using-different-adapters.md): Adamite is designed to work with RethinkDB, but you can connect to virtually any database using different adapters.
- [Memory Adapter](https://adamite.gitbook.io/docs/server/database/using-different-adapters/memory-adapter.md)
- [Securing your data](https://adamite.gitbook.io/docs/server/database/securing-your-data.md): By default Adamite doesn't enforce security on the database. When you're ready to configure security, you can do so with database rules.
- [Securing read operations](https://adamite.gitbook.io/docs/server/database/securing-your-data/securing-read-operations.md)
