The broker database is accessed during runtime if you have message flows
using Publication nodes or message aggregation.

The broker DB can be accessed remotely using a DB client. I don't know that
this is universally supported, though. I have only seen it done with DB2. I
don't know that you can't do the same with other DBMSs, I just can't
confirm that it can be done.

It will very much affect performance if you are using Publication nodes or
message aggregation in message flows.
