Docs are unclear about supported postgres/java versions
Issue Type: Task Task

Reporter: Tim Meusel

Hi people,
I had a look at https://puppet.com/docs/puppetdb/latest/index.html. I need to setup a puppetdb with latest java / postgres. In the previous years I learned that puppetdb almost never works on the latest postgres version. The docs say however:

> PuppetDB requires PostgreSQL 9.6 or later

And:

> ... PuppetDB can run on any Unix-like OS with JVM 8 or newer

Does PuppetDB actually work with Java 11/12/13? Which versions are tested/supported?
Does PuppetDB work with Postgres 11/12? Which versions are tested/supported?

Re: Docs are unclear about supported postgres/java versions

Hi PuppetDB people. today I read https://puppet.com/docs/puppetdb/latest/release_notes.html#puppetdb-6110 saying:
> Running PuppetDB with PostgreSQL 9.6 and 10 has been deprecated. Use PostgreSQL 11 instead.

whereas https://puppet.com/docs/puppetdb/latest/index.html#postgresql-96 says:
> PuppetDB requires PostgreSQL 9.6 or later.

After half a year, can you please tell me which versions are tested/supported and which is recommended?

Following up on the duplicate ticket filed in the DOCUMENT project...

Tim Meusel, I'm going to raise this internally in our PDB Slack channel, however I believe that most of that team is out for U.S. holidays this week. In the meantime, I think you can safely refer to the component version table in the PE docs, which shows which versions of PDB, Postgres, and Java are tested together.

Hi Tim Meusel, apologies for the very long delay.

For PuppetDB 7 we support/recommend PostgreSQL 11 and java 11. We test against PostgreSQL 11,12,13 but don't claim official support for PostgreSQL 12/13. I put a pr up to update the overview page.
