The CronApp development environment uses the H2 type database, which uses memory for disk storage. The containers where applications are published in CronApp do not have disk storage.
In this way, when your application is published, you can even use H2 bank and everything will work including the recording and reading of data, however when stopping the application the container will be turned off, and when it is started again, the data will have disappeared because they were only in memory of the initial container, which was turned off.
