Tutorial - Connecting to a MySQL Database Service DB System with a public IP address using a Network Load Balancer

This tutorial will teach you how to configure an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Network Load Balancer with a MySQL Database Service DB System backend. You can use this to create a public endpoint to a single MySQL DB System backend.

Note: It is a high security risk to expose your database to be accessible by hosts from the internet. Consider using the Bastion Service or a VPN. In cases where access via public IP address is the only alternative, ensure you restrict the authorized external IP addresses to the minimum and use in-transit encryption. Check the [OCI Networking best practices](https://docs.cloud.o

Install MySQL Connector/ODBC 8.0.26 on Oracle Linux 7.8

$ sudo cat /etc/os-release | grep NAME
NAME="Oracle Linux Server"
PRETTY_NAME="Oracle Linux Server 7.8"
CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:oracle:linux:7:8:server"

	Script to Organize and Rename Screenshot Files in Obsidian Markdown Notes

	Purpose:
	This script processes referenced screenshots in Obsidian Markdown (`.md`) files. It renames the screenshot files to include the name of the Markdown file and a unique timestamp. Additionally, it updates the Markdown files to reference the new screenshot filenames and generates a processing report.

	Usage:
	1. Create a `config.ini` file in the same directory as the script with the following content:

	#!/bin/bash

	# Display the directory structure
	cat <<EOL
	This script will create the following directory structure:

	project_name/
	│
	├── notebooks/ # Jupyter notebooks for analysis, exploration, etc.
	│ ├── exploratory/ # Initial explorations, drafts, experiments.

	{
	"character_sets": [
	{
	"name": "armscii8",
	"description": "ARMSCII-8 Armenian",
	"default_collation": "armscii8_general_ci",
	"collations": [
	"armscii8_general_ci",
	"armscii8_bin"
	]

	// MySQL Shell script to create a nested JSON with character sets and collations

	session.setCurrentSchema('information_schema');
	var query = 'SELECT cs.CHARACTER_SET_NAME, cs.DESCRIPTION, cs.DEFAULT_COLLATE_NAME, co.COLLATION_NAME, co.IS_DEFAULT FROM CHARACTER_SETS as cs, COLLATIONS as co WHERE cs.CHARACTER_SET_NAME = co.CHARACTER_SET_NAME ORDER BY cs.CHARACTER_SET_NAME, co.IS_DEFAULT DESC, co.COLLATION_NAME';
	var res = session.sql(query).execute();
	var myJson = {['character_sets']:[]};
	var row = res.fetchOne();
	while(row) {
	var character_set = {'name': {}, 'description': {}, 'default_collation': {}, 'collations': []};
	character_set.name = row[0];
