I don't think the Cloud Database for Postgres is supported as of today. But I surely know that it's in the pipeline(Work-in-progress).

You can submit a request for enhancements via the link provided on the Mobile Foundation help page

Since it's a Cloud Foundry service, yes, it will work with Databases for PostgreSQL. All you need to do is create the Databases for PostgreSQL deployment, then you'll create an alias for it. You can do that from the ibmcloud CLI using the following command:

ibmcloud resource service-alias-create <your alias name> --instance-name <your databases for postgres deployment name>

Then you should be able to use that database just like you use Compose.
