Azure Testabo cleardb upgrade - mysql

I'm trying out the free trial of azure with an a wordpress installation and therefor created a cleardb mysql database. The database was created with the free version and has a very poor performance. However I don't know if I can use my free testrail too scale up the db because the cleardb mysqly database because there I would have to reenter my credit card details...
So are cleardb upgrades also included in the free azure trail?

Mercury plan(free) for ClearDB MySQL is just for testing/development, it has just 4 maximum connections and this is not designed for production environments. Please try to get MySQL on VM for WordPress if you prefer to pay less.

Process of creating database on your own server

I bought "Hetzer" server so I can create my own database and practice a little bit. My server is using Ubuntu. I plan to also create a script (probably in node or asp) so my android application can communicate with database.
How to start with creating database, what to do?
Firstly https://www.hetzner.com/ is one of the best professional web hosting providers. In order to set up your Mysql server to your ubuntu machine. Install lamp stack. There are many tutorials about installing lamp. Then open your DB for remote connection or do kind of restful service to access your data in DB.

Best free tool to take scheduled backup of MySQL from Windows which is installed on Linux server

I have installed MySQL database in VM and planned to take a backup periodically and it can be monitored and executed from Windows Machine.
But when I searched I could not find any full version software to take backup and mysql version is 8
Please advice.
You could use MySQLBackupFTP.
There is a free version that works quite well:
https://mysqlbackupftp.com/features/
Using MySQLBackupFTP you can also connect to your MySQL database through phpMyAdmin if you can't get the TCP/IP access running. That is probably the easiest way.
If you want to have email confirmations about the execution of the back up you would either need to move to a paid version after a while or you simply use GMail or some other email provider. Easy to set up - and using GMail for this (or some other provider of your own) keeps everything free of charge.
If all you need is a regular dump, you can schedule a bash script in CRON to run mysqldump regularly. If you then need access to this dump on your windows machine you can just ftp the dump files across or access them via a samba share.

mysql - Access tool for support team

I have mysql server running on amazon ec2 instance (running on ubuntu)
My support team (running on windows) needs access to this database so they can run some queries and get info straight from the database. Are there any tools in windows that offer such functionality
For querying, I personally use Toad for MySQL as it allows me to easily export to Excel. Unfortunately, it's .Net, so it has some very annoying bugs. My co-workers have spoken highly of Sql Yog and MySQL Workbench.
For data modeling, I really like MySQL Workbench. If money isn't an object, you might look at ErWin.
MySQL Workbench support remote conectivity to any MySQL Server, but you need to perform your server security with remote access in server side and DB side.
Some servers use phpMyAdmin as client (IE Windows compatible). You don't need remote access if you install it on your server but have to check security permissons to your DB side also.
I would suggest using Navicat if you are willing to pay for the licenses. It would be the most user friendly solution IMO. You can download free trials.
Take advantage of dbForge Studio for MySQL. There is free express edition.

Use WampServer's MySQL as a real MySQL for going on the net

Is this a right thing to do? I am using the Apache/Tomcat that comes with the liferay portal bundle and I used the MySQL that comes with WampServer at home but now I want to transfer my portal to a real Server and I wanted to know whether I could still use the Wamp's MySQL or should I install a real MySQL (What's the difference?)
Thanks in advance.
WAMPS MySQL server is not artificial, its the real deal. WAMP just bundles these softwares together and lets you deploy easily for development purposes. In a production environment you would deploy MySQL as a separate software and tweak it according to your needs. You CAN you WAMP on production environment, however you will need to make sure that you do not have any security flaws in there.
