Hello Harald,
the main reason to use another database is just the preference, I use
PostgreSQL for more than 10 years and the node/mongo has a different
approach.
I will try to begin this week.
Thanks

Let me ask something, only the HSS need the

The PCRF also uses mongodb, which I had to find out "the hard way" when
writing
my osmo_dia2gsup translator to use osmo-hlr with nextepc.
May I ask for your motivation to use a different database? I'm personally
also not convinced of the mongodb + nodejs approach of nextepc-hssd. No
disrespect to Sukchan here, it's mainly a question of different taste /
preference.
Given the excellent built-in Diameter support in Erlang/OTP, if I was to
implement a "real" HSS for larger/realistic public networks, I would probably
recommend to do it in Erlang, using mnesia as database backend.
For smaller, more embedded "network in a box" systems, something more
self-contained like a C program with sqlite3 seems like a good idea.
This is what we did in osmo-hlr.
Regards,
Harald
