Installing confluence after service desk, how do I configure PostgreSQL?

Question

I've installed Service Desk/Core and used the default names used in the instructions (jiradb and jiradbuser)

The instructions give the same database name and database user for Confluence. Yet, I've read that the databases must be separate. What about users?

Is it ok to install both applications on the same server?

I'm not very familiar with SQL databases. Thank you.

Sorry Matt, I missed the title of your post and thought you were using MS SQL. Please see: Database Setup for PostgreSQL Best of luck, let us know any questions. :)  Ann

Do those links translate for using PostgreSQL?

Also, separate DB users but also separate databases? Thanks for your quick reply!
