James Dailey commented on FINERACT-1398:
----------------------------------------
Discussed on list
Having a standardized Unicode implementation will simplify, and Utf8mb4 instead
of a mix of utf8* is a no-brainer...
> Standardize the Character Set and the Collation

> It is required to have a Standard in Fineract for handling the Information
> entered into the Database so then the Database creation, tables and migration
> script should use the Standard Charset and Collation defined for Fineract.
> It is proposed to use as Standard in Fineract: utf8mb4 as charset andÂ
> utf8mb4_unicode_ci as collation.
