sudo apt install mysql-server
Configuration
Log into the SQL server as root by running
sudo mysql
Create a new user, where 'password' is your password
CREATE USER 'joey'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'password';
Output should look like Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)
Edit the password if needed later
ALTER USER 'joey'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY 'new_password';

After this you will need to log out and log back into any running sessions.
Remote Access
If you are getting "Connection refused" after setting up all the security groups and can't figure out why confirm that the bind address is 0.0.0.0 instead of 127.0.0.1.
sudo nano /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf
Find the section labeled [mysqld] and confirm the settings are as follows.
bind-address = 0.0.0.0 mysqlx-bind-address = 127.0.0.1
Management
The following apps make it easy to manage your install after setup.
