Status of MySQL support

[OhSeeGee]

This topic was last actively discussed back in 2023 so I thought I would check in on this topic. I would like to deploy FS with a GUI for some customers, but there is always customer resistance to yet another DBMS in their environment. Since they already have MySQL expertise this is regularly a requirement in selection.

I read about pgsql being moved from the core to its own module (mod_pgsql) - but not sure what that means in terms of MySQL support. Any official work on the status of MySQL support within FusionPBX?

I'm not sure about the official position on mysql support but I believe there are some functions that use postgres and have no mysql equivalent. Postgres is also easy to replicate to give you high availability.

I looks like DjangoPBX offers full MySQL support, so I'll give that a try instead.

For the purpose of a config generator, (and simple logging) there really shouldn't be a need for Postgres specific features in FusionPBX. Maybe some day the db module will be abstracted and then open to other DBMS'.
