Provisions a managed MySQL (or MariaDB) database on a dedicated VM on your private network — the relational-database resource (use this instead of create_database when the app needs MySQL/MariaDB, e.g. WordPress, NextCloud, Matomo, many PHP/LAMP apps). Requires a recent plan_managed_datastore. For app deployments, prefer deploy_app database:'managed' with db_engine mysql/mariadb so plan_deploy includes and wires the DB automatically. It is PRIVATE — reachable only from another instance on the same private network, via the DB's internal/private IP (port 3306), not a public address. Get the ids from plan_managed_datastore/list_flavors/list_private_networks/list_keypairs. Provisioning takes ~5 min; poll list_relational_databases until status='ready', then the connection details (private_ip, port 3306, db_name, db_user) are populated. MySQL is created with mysql_native_password auth so older clients/apps connect cleanly. (ClickHouse is a separate resource — use create_clickhouse / list_clickhouse_databases.)
