If it were me I'd start by trying libreelec on the pi (openelec hasn't been updated since about 17.3 AFAIK) and the libreelec mysql addon.You don't think that Kodi will bog down a single pi machine enough to impact the SQL database performance?
I tried running Kodi on one of my Zero Ws, it was... um... disappointing. I mean, it ran... but was laggy when not doing direct playback (I don't recall the performance of playback, I didn't run it for very long)… I had my system set up at one point in time using a zero as the kodi 'scrapper' … it was intermittently useless... sometimes missing several days of programming when it was notified to update... and then all of a sudden it would update perfectly... I wasn't a fan of it running Kodi with or without a head...
I'll give it a shot... it's not like it takes a long time to set them up
