This is a collection of scripts used to demonstrate how to get started with Google Cloud SQL. 
Follow the step by step procedures in this video: [Getting Started with Google Cloud SQL](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kQXgjIfLgo)



**Prerequisites:**
 
1. Sign up for [Google Cloud SQL](https://cloud.google.com/products/cloud-sql), if you haven't already.

2. Download and install [MySQL Community Server](http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/) which includes the MySQL Command-line client tool.

3. [Download and Install](https://developers.google.com/compute/docs/gcutil) the gcutil command line tool. This will be used for interacting with a Google Compute Engine VM instance in order to connect it to Cloud SQL.



**Inventory of scripts:**

SQL script to create a MySQL database and populate it with sample data:
 - schema_and_data.sql : This will be run from the MySQL command line client tool.

Setup scripts for installing PHP and phpMyAdmin on a Compute Engine VM:
