I am looking for a MYSQL provider with a DBNAME, username and password .
I'd like to make some test in real condition .
The idea is to use MySQL tables on an external (cloud) server .

Thanks

Just as an advice, consider using open MySQL servers always under TLS/SSL protection only. Information sent and received from the server travels unencrypted throw the connection, INCLUDING USER AND PASSWORD. It is really unsafe.
