If your application only uses mysql as a backend and does not directly touch the mysql codebase you do not need a liscence. Only if you incorporate mysql code directly into your application you would need a liscence to keep your code proprietary.

If I write a webapp in php and use mysql as a database backend I do not need a liscence.
