Using and finding the right database tags is often not very intuitive. And it also depends on the use case, what the recommended way is. E.g. in MC you should always use the one used in the generation while in data the latest one is often but not always preferred.
There are some twiki pages containing information but they look a bit outdated.
E.g. this one:

This was suggested in the Starterkit debriefing. We thought it would be good to have a page that covers DB tags and DaVinci versions, because they both have a similar "what version should I use" problem.
