Description:
Hi,

The latest CF template for this stack is still using MySQL 5.6, which became end-of-life last month. The templates should surely be using 5.7 now?

Hi @andy.ingham,

Thank you for the notification. Based on the AWS schedule, users won't be able to create MySQL 5.6 instances from April 1st. We will work on updating the database version to not to run into this issue in the future
