Enhancement: MySQL backend - allow lease information to be tied to a role

[rjbez17]

Currently leases are defined globally to the connection. Its be very helpful to set the lease information based on roles (or even at time of requesting credentials). We have a use case to allow some roles to have extended leases. We currently temporarily change the lease, generate the credentials, then change it back. This is an obvious race condition.

Hi @rjbez17,

In the next release #2200 will ship, and it has this feature!

[rjbez17]

Great, before I create another one, will the new version also allow for multiple connection to mysql (different database servers)?

[briankassouf]

Yes! The same mounted backend can configure multiple connections, even of different database types (mysql, postgres, etc.)

[rjbez17]

Awesome! You saved me soooo much work!
