Berkeley DB environment is an encapsulation of one or more databases, log files and shared information about the database environment such as shared memory buffer cache pages.

The simplest way to administer a Berkeley DB application environment is to create a single home directory that stores the files for the applications that will share the environment. The environment home directory must be created before any Berkeley DB applications are run. Berkeley DB itself never creates the environment home directory. The environment can then be identified by the name of that directory.
