Agreed - ARA is a great system, and I really like that it can be combined with
flatfile configs on a single server.

Oh?
What makes you say ODBC is a pain? I have two files (/etc/odbc.ini and
/etc/idbcinst.ini, which are 8 lines and 3 lines in size respectively) and I
had to install one file /usr/local/lib/libmaodbc.so to make it work with
MariaDB.
What's easier about the native MySQL method?

Yes:
a) efficient
b) can be done on a machien remote from the call processing
c) is realtime - call ends, CDRs are immediately available for analysis
d) can even include triggers on DB updates, for example to raise anti-fraud
alerts.
