I recently changed to Eclipse Che on che.openshift.io I found out how to set an workspace as persistent, so the changed code remains and you don't always have to check in in your repository before you leave.
But I could not find out how to get my MySQL database beeing persistent. I always have to build it up from the ground.
Any suggestions? I could not find anything in the net. Maybe its possible with a special workspace config Devfile?
