* For SQLite use the following format to specify the
absolute path where it should be located `sqlite:///path/part/app.db`. You can use `%kernel.project_dir%` as

* For Postgresql use a string in the form of `DATABASE_URL=postgresql://user:password@127.0.0.1:5432/part-db?serverVersion=x.y`.
Please note that **`serverVersion=x.y`** variable is required due to dependency of Symfony framework.
* `DATABASE_MYSQL_USE_SSL_CA`: If this value is set to `1` or `true` and a MySQL connection is used, then the connection
is encrypted by SSL/TLS and the server certificate is verified against the system CA certificates or the CA certificate
