external db requirement of bitbucket data center

[Kunal Agrawal]

I have MySql for my Product. I cannot migrate to any other db now.

As Data center does not support MySql as external Db.

I would like to ask below questions.

1. what is the relation between product db and bitbucket required Db ?

2. can I install one more db postgreSQL only for bitbucket data center and continue using MySql for Product ?

Hi @Kunal Agrawal  and welcome,

if your product is a different application, you can use different database for your bitbucket instance (please take a look to the supported platforms https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucketserver/supported-platforms-776640981.html ).

Hope this helps,

Fabio

I concur with @Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_  - I assume though that "your product" is a plugin/add-on/app (depending on who you ask) that is installed into Bitbucket via UPM.

Does your product have a separate DB layer or separate API (JPA) that's connected to MySql? I suppose you could let Bitbucket and the plugin infrastructure use Postgres and utilise a separate JPA based adapter (or any technology of your choosing) to Mysql.

Best, Ulrich
