Do You Need a Persistent Volume for ArizePhoenix with Postgres?

If you’re using a postgres for data persistence, is the persistent volume still needed on the arizephoenix container?

It could be possible that when using PostgreSQL for data persistence with Phoenix, a persistent volume might not be strictly necessary for the Phoenix container itself, as the data would be stored in the PostgreSQL database. However, it might still be needed for other purposes, such as storing temporary files or logs. According to the Phoenix Docker documentation, when using PostgreSQL, you need to set the PHOENIX_SQL_DATABASE_URL environment variable to connect Phoenix to the PostgreSQL instance, which suggests that the main data persistence is handled by PostgreSQL.Would you like more detail on this?
