I think it should not cause any issue, becase the drivers and url connections are different betweem Drizzle and MariaDB. We have selected a MariaDB version, which is compatible with MySQL 5.7. [~francisguchie] we have been looking for alternatives to Drizzle (which I think is prefered for the BSD license) until now only MySQL J Connector, MariaDB Connector and AWS-MySQL Connector have been good candidates. It is important to look also for the compatibility required by Flyway. We have tried J-Asyc (Apache license), but the use cases are different. I have the following thinking/opinion about having an oudated and "dead" artifact: we have to highlight and warn to tech and non tech that the JDBC connector is handling all the data from Fineract to the Database and if they go for a using it (Drizzle) is riskier for the data integrity and maintenance (for sure they are having issues and doing themselve a quick fix replacing with MySQL or MariaDB drivers). > Completely ditch use of Drizzle JDBC Driver after all > - > > Key: FINERACT-982 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FINERACT-982 > Project: Apache Fineract > Issue Type: Improvement >Reporter: Michael Vorburger >Priority: Blocker > Labels: scalability > Fix For: 1.6.0 > > > Fineract's use of the un-maintained Drizzle JDBC driver continues to cause > confusion and pains like FINERACT-980, and note e.g. the proposed removal of > the alternative MySQL JDBC driver in > [https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/887.] > Some of the background to this is recorded e.g. in FINCN-26, FINERACT-761 and > LEGAL-462. > LEGAL-462 has clarified that the Fineract ZIP distribution must include > Drizzle and cannot distribute the MariaDB or MySQL JDBC clients.

[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FINERACT-982?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel=17292535#comment-17292535 ] Aleksandar Vidakovic commented on FINERACT-982: --- [~kaze] the new mechanics in FINERACT-1177 are very simple: you just drop your driver jars let's say in a folder "libs" next to your fineract-provider.jar and provide an additional startup parameter "" that points to the folder with your JDBC driver jars. That way those drivers that are license incompatible can easily be added to the Fineract's classpath without manually extracting the Spring Boot uber-jar (as it was done before e. g. in the Docker image build). And then obviously you just have to change the driver class name and JDBC connection string in your configuration. So it should be fairly easy - once FINERACT-1177 gets accepted - to use any Mysql driver (Drizzle, MariaDB, Mysql Connector Java) as the standard driver in tests, because the driver is technically not part of the distribution (i. e. we are still compliant with the Apache License constraints). > Completely ditch use of Drizzle JDBC Driver after all > - > > Key: FINERACT-982 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FINERACT-982 > Project: Apache Fineract > Issue Type: Improvement >Reporter: Michael Vorburger >Assignee: Yemdjih Kaze Nasser >Priority: Blocker > Labels: scalability > Fix For: 1.5.0 > > > Fineract's use of the un-maintained Drizzle JDBC driver continues to cause > confusion and pains like FINERACT-980, and note e.g. the proposed removal of > the alternative MySQL JDBC driver in > [https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/887.] > Some of the background to this is recorded e.g. in FINCN-26, FINERACT-761 and > LEGAL-462. > LEGAL-462 has clarified that the Fineract ZIP distribution must include > Drizzle and cannot distribute the MariaDB or MySQL JDBC clients.
