MySQL is an open-source relational database management system, widely used for storing, organizing, and retrieving data in web and enterprise applications. Azure Synapse, on the other hand, is a serverless Big Data solution developed by Microsoft that provides robust large-scale data storage and analytics capabilities.

With Erathos, you can integrate MySQL data into Azure Synapse in just a few minutes. Our platform handles the entire data movement process to your analytical environment, allowing you to blend your data with other sources in your Data Warehouse. This redirects your time to what actually drives value — extracting valuable insights and making more data-driven decisions.

### What MySQL data does Erathos sync with Azure Synapse?

The integration automatically syncs key MySQL objects:

- **Selected tables** — incremental replication of any configured table
- **Schema drift** — new columns are automatically detected and added to the destination
- **Primary keys and timestamps** — used for efficient incremental syncs
- **Historical data** — full initial load followed by incremental updates

### Why sync MySQL with Azure Synapse?

In Azure Synapse, you integrate MySQL data into the Microsoft ecosystem: Power BI for executive dashboards, Azure Data Factory for orchestration, and distributed analytics at enterprise scale.

### How it works

Erathos connects to MySQL via official APIs and syncs your data incrementally — only new or updated records are processed in each run, keeping pipelines fast and Azure Synapse costs predictable. You choose the sync frequency (from every 5 minutes to daily), the objects to sync, and the destination dataset. Every run is logged with full observability: execution time, rows processed, errors with context, and instant alerts via Slack or email if anything goes wrong.

## Data in your data warehouse in minutes

### Out-of-the-box MySQL connector

Replicate MySQL tables to Azure Synapse with incremental sync and automatic schema drift detection — without breaking pipelines when the structure changes.

### Full control over your MySQL pipelines

Configure sync frequency and type per table. Data arrives in Azure Synapse integrated with the Microsoft ecosystem, Power BI, Azure Data Factory, and ML pipelines ready for use.

### End-to-end observability

No more finding out about MySQL issues only after the business team complains. Every run is logged with runtime, rows processed, and error context. Get automatic alerts via Slack, Discord, or email the moment anything deviates from expected behavior — keeping replication always up to date without impacting your transactional database.

## Centralizing MySQL data in Azure Synapse has never been easier

Erathos is a data ingestion platform for teams that need to replicate operational databases for analytics. With the MySQL connector, you can incrementally sync tables and transactional records to Azure Synapse — featuring schema drift detection and complete execution logs.

## FAQ

### What is Erathos and how can it help my company?

Erathos is a data ingestion platform built for reliability, transparency, and control. We help data teams connect tools like MySQL to their data warehouse — with complete observability for every execution, zero maintenance, and without the opacity of traditional market tools.

### How does Erathos sync data from MySQL to Azure Synapse?

Erathos uses incremental replication to sync MySQL tables to Azure Synapse. Schema drift is automatically detected — if a column is added or modified in MySQL, the pipeline adapts without manual intervention.

### How often does Erathos sync data from MySQL to Azure Synapse?

You can configure the sync frequency from every 5 minutes to daily, at the table level. Erathos uses incremental syncs—only new or updated records are processed in each run, keeping your MySQL pipeline efficient and Azure Synapse costs predictable.

### What happens if a MySQL sync fails?

Erathos automatically detects failures and sends alerts to your email, Slack, or Discord with full context — not just "job failed." Smart retries handle transient errors, and every run is logged with runtime, rows processed, and error context so your team can debug in minutes, not hours.

### Is there a free trial for the MySQL connector?

Yes. Every Erathos connector comes with a 14-day free trial. Connect MySQL to Azure Synapse and start syncing immediately — no credit card required.
