pimperator opened a new issue, #7980:
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-devlake/issues/7980

   ### Search before asking
   
   - [X] I had searched in the 
[issues](https://github.com/apache/incubator-devlake/issues?q=is%3Aissue) and 
found no similar feature requirement.
   
   
   ### Use case
   
   running the devlake part (not config-ui, not grafana) we need to ingest the 
value of DB_URL (either from .env file or as environment variable) in order to 
set up the mysql connection
   sadly this contains the full connection string
   ```
   
DB_URL=mysql://username:password@databasehost:3306/database?charset=utf8mb4&parseTime=True&loc=UTC
   ```
   see https://github.com/apache/incubator-devlake/blob/main/env.example#L26
   
   Usually (like for grafana and opendora) the connection is set up via 
DB_HOSTNAME, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD, DB_NAME as environment variables that make 
us able to put DB_PASSWORD into an encrypted vault.
   With the given solution above we need to create the connection string and 
store all data in a vault. Additionally it needs to be recreated on password 
reset.
   
   
   ### Description
   
   I suggest to use DB_HOSTNAME, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD, DB_NAME for the database 
connection setup instead of DB_URL. 
   This makes us able to store DB_PASSWORD in an encrypted vault and rotate 
only that vault/value on password rotation.
