You need at least the “Tryton instance”. But if you want to have scheduled actions performed automatically, you need to start a “Tryton cron instance”.

You can set the environment variable TRYTOND_DATABASE_URI using the syntax of [database] uri.

PostgreSQL is the preferred one and of course the latest available is always better.
