I'd like to second Abishek's question. Long-term, I'd like to see support
for some scalable NoSQL solution -- with a slight preference for Cassandra.
Right now, I'm setting up database support for a client who prefers MS SQL
Server.
Would love to know if there are any major headaches or issues with any of
the more popular relational databases.
Thanks,
Roger Trunau

Hey Stian,
As mongoDB may not be supported by keycloak from 3.x onwards, which RDBMS
you would suggest/recommend going further so that we can pro actively start
looking into it.
Those who are alreaady using relational databases, please share your
experiences with different DBs on keycloak.
Thanks
Abhishek
