Use this to connect Alumio to a MySQL database server. Once it is set up, the connection can be reused by other features that read from or write to your MySQL database, so you configure where the server lives and how to sign in just once. The extra MySQL options let you tune how the connection behaves, but the defaults work for most servers.
