- Around line 65-71: Update the external database guide’s RDS setup and
connection examples to use the configured database port and selected username
consistently, including the inbound security-group rule, the mysql command near
the RDS instructions, and the verification commands around the later connection
example. Define the chosen username and port before using them, and include the
port option in every relevant command instead of hardcoding 3306 or assuming
admin.
- Around line 141-145: Update the MariaDB setup procedure and the Spider
subsection so readers connect to the target database server before running SQL,
using the documented host/endpoint, port, and user connection details or
explicitly stating that an existing session must remain active; replace the
local socket-only sudo mysql step and add the missing connection guidance before
the Spider SQL steps.
- Around line 153-169: Update the executable MariaDB examples around the CLP and
Spider setup to use caller-specific hosts instead of granting clp-user access
from “%”. Define separate restricted accounts where CLP and Spider run on
different hosts, or otherwise use each caller’s specific allowed hostname or IP;
retain “%” only when explicitly justified by network controls. Update the
accompanying note so restricted hosts are the default rather than an optional
improvement.

260-269: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick winComplete the dedicated Spider-user workflow.
When Spider uses another database server, the text tells the reader to create a dedicated user, but the only grant shown still targets
'clp-user'@'%'. Following this branch literally leaves the dedicated user without privileges onspider-db, so Spider cannot connect. Add the grant for the dedicated Spider user and use the same username and password inspiderConfig.database.Proposed correction
- Otherwise, create a dedicated user first, following the same steps as in - [Using an external database with CLP](`#using-an-external-database-with-clp`). + Otherwise, create a dedicated Spider user on this database server and grant + that user privileges on `spider-db`. - username: "clp-user" - password: "<your-mariadb-password>" + username: "<spider-username>" + password: "<spider-password>"Also applies to: 283-286

Description
See PR title.
By refactor, we mean two things:
We also added a new section called Using an external database with Spider to document the Spider external database setup. This section includes how a user can reuse the CLP database/user creation steps and how to configure it for a Kubernetes setup using Helm values. Since Spider does not support external database configuration in Docker Compose, we do not mention Docker Compose there.
We also adds the description for configuration
spider.spiderConfig.databasein "Using Spider Scheduler" user guide to make it complete.Checklist
breaking change.
