Akonadi ships its own default MySQL configuration, which is per user. It does not use or require the systemwide instance (by default; it can be configured to connect to a systemwide or even remote MySQL server, but the default is a local per-user instance). There's no administration required at all, Akonadi fires up everything automatically.
