MySQL OCF Connector: Version 2.1.0

Enhancements

Catalog Page Displays Both Alation and Source Timestamps

The connector now extracts the source timestamp and displays it along with the Alation timestamp (timestamps when the objects were created or updated) in the catalog page and source timestamps. Currently, only native connectors display source timestamps in the catalog page. This enhancement bridges the gap between OCF and native connectors. (AL-201433)

Improved Custom MDE Queries

Custom MDE queries now require the schema column to use the alias SCHEMA. Using the alias CATALOG in your custom queries will result in validation errors. Therefore, update existing custom queries to ensure the schema column uses the SCHEMA alias to maintain compatibility. This change ensures alignment with MySQL standards and SDK validation requirements.

Note

To use the updated query format, upgrade to MySQL OCF Connector version 2.1.0 before modifying your custom queries as described in the Query Based Extraction section of MySQL Connector:Install and Configure.
