 This implementation leverages Quarkus for datasource management and supports 
configuration through
 environment variables or JVM -D flags at startup. For more information, refer 
to the [Quarkus configuration 
reference](https://quarkus.io/guides/config-reference#env-file).
 
+We have 2 options for configuring the persistence backend:
 
+### 1. Relational JDBC metastore with username and password
+
+using environment variables:
 ```
 POLARIS_PERSISTENCE_TYPE=relational-jdbc

 QUARKUS_DATASOURCE_PASSWORD=<your-password>
 QUARKUS_DATASOURCE_JDBC_URL=<jdbc-url-of-postgres>

Review Comment:
   I'd prefer to avoid options like env. vs. file in main docs. All of that is 
essentially a config entry. There are multiple sources for the config (env., 
system properties, properties file) and there are differences with how you can 
specific config names.
   
   Also, lower case names with dots do work in the environment (e.g. in 
docker/k8s) but do _not_ work in `bash` (and probably other shells).
   
   I think we may need to overhaul the docs WRT user-facing config, but let's 
keep the existing patterns for this PR (upper case env. variables).
