Sometimes it happens mysql installed but it is not showing in Data Source. So just check it out that .
Try this Plugin also : https://cdn.mysql.com/Downloads/MySQLInstaller/mysql-visualstudio-plugin-1.1.1.msi
Latest Version of Connector : http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/net/

You have to first download My Sql for VS from here -> http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/visualstudio/
Then you have to download a connector . you get that from this -> http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/net/
After you install both Links into your PC. Then in Visual Studio Server Explorer --> Add New Connection --> Choose Data Source - -> Select MY SQL Database .-- > OK.
You also can test the connection i.e Database is working or not. For that Click Test Connection . When all things get set . Just Press OK .
You are ready with you My Sql Server.
Hope this will help !!
