Hi, I am using camunda 8 self managed along with Spring version 3.2.
I read it extensively by now that how Camunda utilizes disc space for store, but then if we want to configure it to use any particular Database, how do we do that?

How how do we make query of the data that camunda 8 stores in the disc?
So basically, audit details are sometimes required and needed for a workflow Instance at each level (Any task it goes through), how do we do that?

you cannot configure any database like Camunda 7, Camunda 8 is designed to move away from standard database to enable cloud native capabilities.

Camunda 8 zeebe broker uses RocksDB to maintain the state. Its key value pair database. Zeebe engine is bundled rocksdb inside, you cannot access outside.

Regarding audit, you can access Operate to view the details.
Refer the documentation.
