Options For External Databases With Roblox

I started looking into Roblox datastores, and I wondered if there is a way to use a database such as MS SQL Server, PostgreSQL, MySQL, etc. in place of Roblox’s datastore. I saw some info on that on the devforum and online, but not much. What options are there for using databases, and how does this work with Roblox? And, do you have to pay to host the data yourself, or would it be stored in the Roblox servers, without having to pay for anything? I’ve been learning MS SQL Server along with Robl…
