+If you prefer direct access without port forwarding, update `mysql-service.yaml`
+to use a `NodePort` service. The example in this repository exposes port `3306`
+on node port `30306`:
+
+```
+spec:
+  type: NodePort
+  ports:
+    - protocol: TCP
+      port: 3306
+      targetPort: 3306
+      nodePort: 30306
+```
+After applying the updated service you can connect using `<node-ip>:30306`.
