Did anyone manage to get the persistence up and running into a Microsoft MySQL database?
Thinking in OH 2 
Do you mean MySql running on Windows or Microsoft SQL Server?
There is no product called Microsoft MySQL. There is Oracle MySQL though because they own the product. 
Hah - yes sorry… The Persistance service connecting to a Microsoft SQL Server with JDBC addon installed on it…
Currently now i am running it on a Oracle MySQL, but would like to change to Microsoft
MySQL too stable for you? 
Hehe… I’m more to the Microsoft things…
hmm Maria DB too sensible
