Summary

  • Added a new page for schema change handling in MySQL CDC.
  • Patched some technical details (cc @Amogh-Bharadwaj, @serprex for ✅):
    • Increased recommended binlog retention hours for Aurora and RDS MySQL from 24 to 72 hours, motivated by this discussion.
    • Reviewed stated MySQL version support for Aurora and RDS MySQL, which was correct for RDS but incomplete for Aurora. For Aurora, specifically removed the mention to 8.4 (not supported), and switched to using their version terminology, including a mention to Aurora Serverless v2 — customers tend to use that rather than MySQL versions.
  • Improved overall consistency between PostgreSQL and MySQL CDC documentation.

ClickPipes for MySQL can detect schema changes in the source tables and, in some cases, automatically propagate the changes to the destination tables. The way each DDL operation is handled is documented below:

[//]: # "TODO Extend this page with behavior on rename, data type changes, and truncate + guidance on how to handle incompatible schema changes."

we don't currently propagate any of these. to alter columns they should add new column with new name & drop old column

@morsapaes do you want to leave this up for now for testing your vercel permissions? Otherwise I can make an edit so we can merge.

Let's merge it, no need to block it on Vercel. Thank you both!
