    Description

      While preparing for 3.3.6 RC, I realized the mysql-connector-java dependency added by HADOOP-18535 is GPL licensed.

      Source: https://github.com/mysql/mysql-connector-j/blob/release/8.0/LICENSE
      See legal discussion at LEGAL-423.

      I looked at the original jira and github PR and I don't think the license issue was noticed.

      Is it possible to get rid of the mysql connector dependency? As far as I can tell the dependency is very limited.

      If not, I guess I'll have to revert the commits for now.
