Description
The Lighthouse beacon node backend has been previously abstracted to handle different database implementations. Currently the two enabled database implementations are LevelDB and Redb. LevelDB is currently the most performant DB implementation, but we've seen issues where a LevelDB database hosted on a NFS (network file system) can get corrupted. This is because LevelDB (and probably Redb as well) is not designed to handle concurrent access and other inconsistencies/latencies introduced by NFS. Postgres, with the correct settings should be able to run on an NFS without these risks.
