Raspberry PI as Databaseserver for WPF

Julian Hofmaninger

Hi guys!

I want to connect a databaseserver to a WPF Application, to access it remotely. My plan is to set up a MySQL database on a Raspberry Pi and use it as my Server. As I am very new to server related topics, I wanted to ask if anyone has experience in it and could give me some advice. Is it possible to connect with the IP of the Raspberry Pi?

I would be very grateful if you could recommend some good sources of information (books, videos,...).

Thanks for your help!

@Mario Ok, it is just for educational reasons, so I don´t really care if the performance is that good.

To answer your question - yes, it works. But to be honest, you will not be happy with the performance :)
The PI 4 even is not ment to be a high performance Machine, which a regular SQL-Server needs to be to serve data right, including cashing, etc.
It's like taking a Smart ForTwo to a Formular1 race ...it will get to the finishline but ...

For connecting use: https://www.nuget.org/packages/MySql.Data
