 * With the newer versions of WordPress, how feasible is it to switch to a different
   database type? I know earlier versions primarily relied on MySQL or MariaDB, 
   but I’m curious if support for other databases has been added. If this is possible
   now, how can I try it? And if not, is there any timeline for such support?
