  We are wondering if you still supply support if we use AzureSQL instead of MySQL?

  I don’t have a site with WordPress.com yet

  Hi! The WordPress software itself uses MySQL, and doesn’t have the option to use anything else:

  Was there any particular reason you wanted to use an alternative? Perhaps we can point you in the right direction to achieve what you need; feel free to let us know more about what you’d be aiming to do!
