MySQL database compare and sync
Use SQL Delta 7 for same-engine MySQL release work. The same compare-and-sync workflow used for SQL Server is available when the source and target are both MySQL or MariaDB.
Supported MySQL targets
SQL Delta for MySQL supports MySQL 5.7 onwards and the MariaDB LTS line from 10.6 onwards. That keeps dev, staging and hosted web environments on one review path for schema drift, data drift and deployment scripting.
| Server | Supported versions |
|---|---|
| MySQL | MySQL 5.7, 8.0, 8.4 LTS and the 9.x innovation releases |
| MariaDB | MariaDB 10.6, 10.11, 11.4 and 11.8 LTS, plus the current 11.x rolling releases |
Use reports and snapshots when the release needs a saved review trail instead of a live connection to the database.
When MySQL stays simple and when it becomes mixed-estate
Stay on the SQL Delta path while both ends are MySQL or MariaDB. If the handoff starts crossing between MySQL and SQL Server or Oracle, use the Mixed database estates explainer before stepping into SQL DXP.
