Also, there is a license break with mysql connectorj which uses GPL license
since we could not have mysql v8 to work with drizzle driver. Check

I think the way forward from here to ensure the support of both mysql v5 and v8
is to do as [~vorburger] suggested and have it tested in the travis CI.
With this check, once the project is released, users can simply change the
driver and will be good to work with mysql v8

> Test Fineract with the latest version of MySQL v8 instead of the old MySQL 5
