    Umbraco v8 working with mysql

    Hi,

    Has Umbraco dropped the mysql compatibility in version 8?

    Trying to install a new instance and don't have the option to connect to mysql anymore. I can't find any mention of Umbraco planning to do this either.

    Help!

    HI

    yeah Umbraco 8 has dropped support for MySql - there was an issue to track this when it was done, but nothing 'announced' at the moment

    If support is now only MSSQL, is there any need for the DAL making datastorage agnostic?

    If so, is the road-plan to optimise performance by shifting some of the heavy lifting to the database side, leveraging cached stored procedures for instance?

    MSSQL quickly becomes the major hosting cost, MySQL at least allowed mitigation of that cost, with the caveat of limited package support.

    What is your cost?

    It's approximately $360/month I believe. That's a considerable cost to pay per year.

    You can get database-as-a-service from around 15$ on azure

    That might work in most instances but we're trying to use sphinx as a search engine and db as a service doesn't support it.

    And we'd still have to pay for MS SQL ... so that's quite a cost jump.

    How do you get to 360$?

    That's how much Ms SQL costs us per month.

    We start using Umbraco with MySQL instead of MS SQL because of high price. We didn't find MS SQL database service on Azure for reasonable price.

    Is there anything we as a community can di to MySQL / MariaDB support?

    I'm just starting out. Do I have to have separately configured a DB before I begin using Umbraco? The 'Creating a Basic Website using Umbraco' tutorial does not mention DBs at all??

    I wanted to start learning the system. It really has great features... But... That part of limiting to one database just drove me away.

    Why did you make such a decision at the time everyone is trying to be flexible as much as possible.

    (MySQL and Postgres users; "a lot to loose")
