Hello, 

I'm facing an issue with the MySQL database: after a certain period of inactivity, the database appears to become inactive or inaccessible, requiring me to send a regular request just to keep it active. I would like to understand if there is a specific configuration that I can adjust to avoid this behavior or if there is an alternative solution to keep the connection active automatically, without the need for constant requests.

Thank you in advance for your help and I remain available to provide further information if necessary.
