Why the MySQL support?

Seems pretty weird to include support for an Oracle offering from the get-go, especially given the bad blood between Google and Oracle.

It's more important to us to address what developers want and many developers are using MySQL even on clouds.

Was there consideration for going with (say) MariaDB instead?

I haven't looked in detail, but aren't they compatible? Wouldn't it work with mariadb as well?
