Directus supports Postgres, MySQL, MariaDB, OracleDB, CockroachDB, MS SQL. For all of these, we aim to support the currently supported versions of those database. [https://endoflife.date](https://endoflife.date) is a great resource to check which versions of databases are currently actively supported 🙂

Edit: And Sqlite! Thanks for the reminder @brainslug
