  • Grab another server (probably best to be in the same datacenter/region) (PROTIP: Use my referral link https://m.do.co/c/b1c2c28c6822)
  • Install the mysqld daemon
  • Configure your mysql users to have strict permissions (crud and ip range with a strong password)
  • Open port 3306 on your firewall
  • telnet the port from your other server to see if you've configured your firewall correctly (telnet <ip> 3306)
  • Modify the PHP script to point to the remote server in the mysql api (pdo, mysqli, dbconnector, ...)
  • (optional but advised) create backup routines that store mysql backups offsite (probably best to be in a different datacenter or dedicated storage - then make sure you know how to restore from a backup)
