MySQL Data Sources

MySQL Data Sources

PowerExchange can capture change events for MySQL source tables from MySQL binary logs by using the MySQL binary log reader, mysqlbinlog.
The binary log reader and PowerExchange capture process must run on the same Linux or Windows machine. This machine can be remote from the MySQL source database server. Use of the PowerExchange Logger for Linux, UNIX, and Windows is optional.
PowerExchange extracts the change records from the real-time change stream or from PowerExchange Logger for Linux, UNIX, and Windows log files and makes the changes available to PowerCenter CDC sessions.
PowerExchange uses the DataDirect ODBC driver for MySQL to retrieve change data and source metadata from the MySQL database server. This ODBC driver is included in the PowerExchange installation.
