Hi@akhtar,

You can download MySQL image from the docker hub. But you need to check the document properly as MySQL database needs some environment variable. You can follow the below-given example.

[root@localhost ~]#  docker run -dit -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=redhat -e MYSQL_USER=nadim -e MYSQL_PASSWORD=redhat -e MYSQL_DATABASE=mydatabase mysql:5.7

[root@localhost ~]#

To connect to the database your system should have MySQL command.

[root@localhost ~]# mysql -h 172.200.0.2 -u nadim -predhat
mysql: [Warning] Using a password on the command line interface can be insecure.
Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
