| description | Read or write MySQL or OCI MySQL HeatWave from an AIDP notebook via the AIDP `aidataplatform` Spark format handler. Use when the user mentions MySQL, HeatWave, MySQL Database Service, MDS, or has a MySQL host/port. Auth is host/port + user/password. |

aidp-mysql — MySQL / OCI MySQL HeatWave via AIDP aidataplatform
Covers both on-prem / generic MySQL (type=MYSQL) and OCI MySQL HeatWave (type=MYSQL_HEATWAVE). The option shape is identical; only the type differs. For most workloads pick MYSQL and the connector will route correctly. Choose MYSQL_HEATWAVE to get HeatWave-aware optimizations (the AIDP connector pushes down compatible ops to the HeatWave accelerator).
When to use
- Read or write MySQL or OCI HeatWave from an AIDP notebook.
- Mentioned: "MySQL", "HeatWave", "MDS", "MySQL Database Service".
When NOT to use
Read
import os
from oracle_ai_data_platform_connectors.aidataplatform import (
AIDP_FORMAT, aidataplatform_options,
)
opts = aidataplatform_options(
type=os.environ.get("MYSQL_TYPE", "MYSQL"),
host=os.environ["MYSQL_HOST"],
port=int(os.environ.get("MYSQL_PORT", "3306")),
user=os.environ["MYSQL_USER"],
password=os.environ["MYSQL_PASSWORD"],
schema=os.environ["MYSQL_SCHEMA"],
table=os.environ["MYSQL_TABLE"],
)
df = spark.read.format(AIDP_FORMAT).options(**opts).load()
df.show(5)
Write
opts = aidataplatform_options(
type="MYSQL",
host=os.environ["MYSQL_HOST"],
port=int(os.environ.get("MYSQL_PORT", "3306")),
user=os.environ["MYSQL_USER"],
password=os.environ["MYSQL_PASSWORD"],
schema=os.environ["MYSQL_SCHEMA"],
table=os.environ["MYSQL_TARGET_TABLE"],
extra={"write.mode": "CREATE"},
)
df.write.format(AIDP_FORMAT).options(**opts).save()
Gotchas
schema = MySQL database name. MySQL conflates "schema" and "database"; pass the database name as schema.
- HeatWave routing — pass
type=MYSQL_HEATWAVE to enable HeatWave-aware predicate pushdown. The MySQL DB Service still works under type=MYSQL; you only get HeatWave acceleration with the explicit type.
- Default port 3306 for MySQL / HeatWave; OCI HeatWave Lakehouse exposes port 33060 (XAPI) — use
MYSQL_PORT=33060 for that case.
- Network reachability — same constraint as PostgreSQL: must be reachable from the AIDP cluster's VCN.
