Adding MYSQL to Cloud Foundry and using it as a service - mysql

I am new to cloud foundry service, and wondering if the community can help to answer my question.
I have a simple WordPress app pushed to Cloud Foundry cf push Wordpress which has backend MYSQL servers. I have been asked to add MYSQL as a service within Cloud Foundry, but currently this does not exist.
When i perform cf marketplace there is not an option for MYSQL.
Simply put how do i get MYSQL on Cloud Foundry for my app to use it as a service.
Thanks

Here are instructions how to deploy a MySQL bosh release to your environment and register a service broker for it so that it appears in cf marketplace: https://github.com/cloudfoundry/cf-mysql-release

GitHub Actions - how to connect to an external MySql database

I'm building an application in Python and using GitHub Actions to automate the testing 'on push'. However, I now want to connect my app to an existing MySql database.
From searching the Marketplace, Google and YouTube, I can see the following options:
use the MySql supplied with the GitHub Actions' Ubuntu virtual environment
setup a new MySql dB inside the GitHub Actions VM.
Setup MySql inside a Docker container and connect to it from another Docker container containing my app.
What I can't see is how to connect out of the GitHub Actions VM to an existing database on my network. Is it possible and should I expect to see a pre-built action to do this in the Marketplace.
Sorry for such an obtuse question: old, out-of-date programmer new to both CI/CD and containerisation. Thank you.

Bluemix using Node-RED bind to existing ClearDB MySQL service

I am using Node-RED on IBM Bluemix. I am trying to connect to MySQL hosted by ClearDB, but I cannot find a suitable node in the database category.
How can I bind to existing ClearDB service that I already have bound to another app?
You can take a look at this MySQL node for Node-RED in the flow and node library, it is an extension. The steps to add additional node types to the editor is explained in the Node-RED documentation in general, however it does not directly apply to Bluemix. For your Bluemix environment you would need to access and modify the environment. See this post on how to deploy your customized Node-RED environment to Bluemix.

MySql in pivotal cloud foundry environment

Does MySql come out of the box installed in pivotal cloud foundry environment? I was told that the containers within cloud foundry are transient in nature. If so , how does it support MySQL DB installation?
Pivotal offers Cloud Foundry in a couple ways. The hosted service is called Pivotal Web Services and allows apps to bind to a MySQL service such as ClearDB -- check out the marketplace.
The on-premise offering of Pivotal Cloud Foundry provides a MySQL service as well.
MySQL itself doesn't run as an application on Cloud Foundry, it's offered as a service alongside Cloud Foundry. Cloud Foundry currently only runs stateless applications, but support for a cloud-native solution for persistent workloads is starting up, so in the future it would be possible to run MySQL as an "application" directly on Cloud Foundry.

Database on Cloud

BACKGROUND-
I am planning to make a website that will accept data from users to store them in a database(MySQL).The website would be served from google cloud servers.I have installed MAMP on my mac for web development.
PROBLEM-
Google cloud services also provide Cloud SQL.Now I have a few doubts-
1)Once I finish designing my website on MAMP and want to deploy it on cloud servers I would have database settings of my local machine.Does this mean that before putting it on cloud and in order to use Cloud SQL as database I would have to change code on back-end side that specifies database settings?If yes then how tedious is it to do so?(Changing database from testing environment from MySQL to deployment environment Cloud SQL).
2)Also is there a way to use cloud and not use Cloud SQL?
3)What else combination can be chosen with database to deploy website on cloud?
Usually changing the database needs huge efforts(testing and some config changes) as all the databases provide many additional features which doesn't work directly on another database.
You can use Cloud(Cloud SQL is just part of it).
But the Cloud SQL is mysql only as per the information given on the below link by google

So, it should not be a big deal for you to migrate the project to cloud from your local system. Only you have to configure the connection details(it will not be simply localhost).
