 You can also target specific services in the end-to-end tests using the `--service-name` flag.
 See `./cloud-service-broker client run-examples --help` for more details.
 
-### Database Setup
-
-You can set up a local MySQL database for testing using Docker:
-
-```
-$ docker run -p 3306:3306 --name test-mysql -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=password -d mysql:5.7
-$ docker exec -it test-mysql mysql -uroot -p
-$ mysql> CREATE DATABASE servicebroker;
-$ mysql> exit
-```
-
-Or, you can run the service broker using SQLite3 for development by specifying
-the `db.type` and `db.path` fields:
-
-```
-db.type: sqlite3
-db.path: service-broker-db.sqlite3
-```
-
-### Database Exploration
-
-You can debug the database locally using the `show` sub-command.
-It will dump a database table as JSON to stdout.
-You can dump: `bindings`, `instances`, `migrations`, and `provisions`.
-
-```
-$ ./cloud-service-broker --config test.yaml show provisions
-[
-    {
-        "ID": 1,
-        "CreatedAt": "2018-07-17T10:08:07-07:00",
-        "UpdatedAt": "2018-07-17T10:08:07-07:00",
-        "DeletedAt": null,
-        "ServiceInstanceId": "my-cloud-storage",
-        "RequestDetails": ""
-    }
-]
-```
-
-### Configuration
-
-Rather than setting environment variables to run the broker you can use the
-settings file below and just set the service account JSON as an environment variable:
-
-    ROOT_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_JSON=$(cat service-account.json) ./cloud-service-broker serve --config testconfig.yml
-
-
-
-**testconfig.yml**
-
-```
-db:
-  host: localhost
-  name: servicebroker
-  password: password
-  port: "3306"
-  user: root
-api:
-  user: user
-  password: pass
-  port: 8000
-```
-
-
-### Useful commands
-
-Create unbind commands for all bindings:
-
-  ./cloud-service-broker show bindings | jq --raw-output '.[] | "./cloud-service-broker client unbind --bindingid \(.BindingId) --instanceid \(.ServiceInstanceId) --planid \(.PlanId) --serviceid \(.ServiceId)"'
-
-Create deprovision commands for all bindings:
-
-  ./cloud-service-broker show instances | jq --raw-output '.[] | "./cloud-service-broker client deprovision --instanceid \(.ID) --serviceid \(.ServiceId) --planid \(.PlanId)"'
-
 ## Acceptance Testing
 
 See [acceptance testing](acceptance-tests/README.md) for hints and tools for testing services.
