Use this account type to connect MySQL Snaps with datasources that use MySQL Dynamic accounts. This account deals with the dynamically calculated values. You can specify the account properties as expressions referencing pipeline parameters. The values for dynamic accounts are not stored; hence, use them when requested.

...

To ensure compatibility, we recommend that you use matching versions of MySQL driver and MySQL server for configuring your account. For example, when using server version 8.0.22, ensure that the driver version is also 8.0.22. For details, see the official MySQL article on version compatibility.

JDBC JARs

N/A

List of JDBC JAR files to be loaded. Click the + button on the right of the field to add a row.

Note
If you do not add any JDBC JARs, a default JDBC JAR file is loaded. The default JAR file does not support connectivity to MYSQL8. To connect to MYSQL8, you must upload JAR `mysql-connector-java` (v5.1.47 or v8).

N/A

JDBC Driverdriver

String

The software component enabling an application to interact with a database.

Note
When you use the relative path for the JDBC JAR file in accounts across different projects, the pipelines fail with the `JAR FILE NOT FOUND`error. Therefore, you must use the absolute path for the JDBC JAR file to run your pipelines successfully.

Configure SSH Tunnel

Check boxCheckbox/Expressions

Select this check box if the Snap must create an SSH tunnel dynamically for connecting the JCC node to the MySQL server. Once the operation is completed, the tunnel is closed.

If selected, the configuration details of the SSH tunnel must be provided.

Not selected

N/A

SSH Auth Mode

StringDropdown List/Expressions

Select the mode for authenticating the user on the SSH tunnel. The associated properties are displayed.

The valid options are:

Password: If selected, the SSH Hostname, SSH Username and the SSH Password properties must be configured.
KeyFile: If selected, the SSH Hostname, SSH Username, KeyStore, KeyStore Password, Key alias, and Private Key Passphrase properties must be configured.

This value is considered only if the Configure SSH Tunnel check box is selected.

Password

Strings/Expressions

The IP address or the domain name of the SSH server to which you want to connect.

This value is considered only if the Configure SSH Tunnel check box is selected.

N/A

_sshhostname

SSH Username

username*

Strings/Expressions

The SSH username for connecting to the tunnel.

This value is considered only if the Configure SSH Tunnel check box is selected.

SSH Password

password*

Strings/Expressions

The password associated with the SSH user name. This field is required if Auth Mode is Password.

This value is considered only if the Configure SSH Tunnel check box is selected.

N/A

_sshuserpassword

KeyStore

StringStrings/Expressions

The location of the keystore file. This field is required if SSH Auth Mode is KeyFile.

The file can be in SLDB, on the host machine that is hosting the JCC, or at any other remote location. For a local file, click Image Modified to select the appropriate file using the file browser. You can also upload the file using any protocol such as https, ftp, sldb, and sftp.

This value is considered only if the Configure SSH Tunnel check box is selected.

This value is considered only if the Configure SSH Tunnel check box is selected.

N/A

_keystorepassword

Key alias

StringStrings/Expressions

The identifier or label of the private key to be used from the keystore. This field is required if the SSH Auth Mode is KeyFile.

This value is considered only if the Configure SSH Tunnel check box is selected.

N/A

_keyalias

Private Key Passphrase

key passphrase

Strings/Expressions

The password associated with the private key. If no value is provided, the keystore password is used.

This value is considered only if the Configure SSH Tunnel check box is selected.

Advanced properties Fieldset Advanced input required for connecting to the database.

Auto commit

NCheckbox/AExpressions

Auto-commit property for the database.

When selected, each of the batches is committed immediately after it is executed. If the Snap fails, only the batch being executed at that moment is rolled back.

When deselected, the Snap execution output is committed only after all the batches are executed. If the Snap fails, the entire transaction is rolled back, unless the Snap finds invalid input data before it sends the insert request to the server, and routes the error documents to the Error view.

Selected

Batch size*

Integer/Expressions

Required. Batch size defines how many SQL statements can be executed in a single batch. For example, when inserting 100 records with batch size as 40, there will be 100 insert statements, and they are executed in 3 batches, the first and second batches contain 40 insert statements each and the third batch contains 20.

It is part of the JDBC standard, there is no maximum limit on the batch size. However, the JDBC drivers do not necessarily follow the standard and could throw exceptions if the batch size is too large for a specific driver. Reduce the batch size if you see an exception saying that the batch size is too large.

Note
Select queries are not batched.

Warning
Using a large batch size could use up the JDBC placeholder limit of 2100. If the batch size is too large, sending a single batch request to the database server can take too long and it would time out. You should test and monitor the performance with different batch sizes and decide the best batch size.

50

Fetch size*

Integer/Expressions

Required. Number of rows to fetch at a time when executing a query.

Warning
Large values could cause the server to run out of memory.

100

Max pool size* Integer/Expressions Required. Maximum number of concurrent connections a pool will maintain at a time. The number of max pool size depends on how many concurrent connections you need. Each MySQL Snap holds a separate connection when running. For a pipeline that has 4 MySQL Insert, 2 MySQL Execute, and 1 MySQL Update Snaps, the max pool size should be no less than 7 to make sure that the pipeline is executed successfully. 50 50

Max life timelifetime (minutes)* Integer/Expressions Required. The maximum time (in minutes) of a connection in the pool. Ensure that the value you enter is a few seconds shorter than any database or infrastructure-imposed connection time limit. A value of 0 indicates an infinite lifetime, subject to the Idle Timeout value. An in-use connection is never retired. Connections are removed only after they are closed. 30 30

Idle Timeouttimeout (minutes)* Integer/Expressions Required. The maximum time (in seconds) a connection is allowed to sit idle in the pool. A value of 0 indicates that idle connections are never removed from the pool. 5 5

Checkout timeout (milliseconds)*

Integer/Expressions

Required. The number of milliseconds to wait for a connection to be available when the pool is exhausted. A value of 0 waits forever. An exception will be thrown after the wait time has expired.
