Target DataSource:

Connection

Basic Functions

FunctionDescription
Schema Migration

If the target schema does not exist, BladePipe will automatically generate and execute CREATE statements based on the source metadata and the mapping rule.

Full Data Migration

Migrate data by sequentially scanning data in tables and writing it in batches to the target database.

Incremental Data Sync

Sync of common DML like INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE is supported.
UPDATE and DELETE for tables without primary keys are not synced by default (manual selection required).

Data Verification and Correction

Verify all existing data. Optionally, you can correct the inconsistent data based on verification results. Scheduled DataTasks are supported.
For more information, see Create Verification and Correction DataJob.

Subscription Modification

Add, delete, or modify the subscribed tables with support for historical data migration. For more information, see Modify Subscription.

Position Resetting

Reset positions by file position or timestamp. Allow re-consumption of incremental data logs in a past period or since a specific Binlog file and position.

Table Name Mapping

Support the mapping rules, namely, keeping the name the same as that in Source, converting the text to lowercase, converting the text to uppercase, truncating the name by "_digit" suffix.

DDL Sync
  • ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN, DROP COLUMN, MODIFY COLUMN, CHANGE COLUMN
  • ADD INDEX
  • RENAME TABLE
  • CREATE TABLE (whole database sync)
  • Table partitioning
  • Other compatible DDLs
Metadata Retrieval

Retrieve the target metadata with filtering conditions or target primary keys set from the source table.

Advanced Functions

FunctionDescription
Removal of Target Data before Full Data Migration

Remove the existing data in the Target before running the Full Data Migration, applicable for DataJobs reruning and scheduled Full Data migrations.

Recreating Target Table

Recreate target tables before running the Full Data Migration, applicable for DataJobs reruning and scheduled Full Data migrations.

Incremental Data Write Conflict Resolution Rule

IGNORE: Ignore primary key conflicts (skip writing), REPLACE: Replace the entire row in case of primary key conflicts.

Handling of Zero Value for Time

Allow setting zero value for time to different data types to prevent errors when writing to the Target.

Bidirectional Sync

Support bidirectional data migration and sync (DML/DDL) with the loop prevented. For more information, see MySQL Bidirectional Sync.

Online DDL Compatibility

Support GH-OST, PT-OSC, Aliyun DMS Online DDL, PT_GHOST.

Whole Database Sync

Support sync of DDLs to create, delete, and modify tables as well as the data. For more information, see Sync Whole Database.

Scheduled Full Data Migration

For more information, see Create Scheduled Full Data DataJob.

Custom Code

For more information, see Custom Code Processing, Debug Custom Code and Logging in Custom Code.

Adding Virtual Columns

Support adding custom virtual columns with fixed values, such as region, ID, etc.

Setting Target Primary Key

Change the primary key to another field to facilitate data aggregation and other operations.

Data Filtering Conditions

Support data filtering using WHERE conditions, with SQL-92 as the SQL language. For more information, see Data Filtering.

Setting Update Conditions for Target

Set additional update conditions for UPDATE operations, used to resolve confilcts in bidirectional sync.

Limits

LimitDescription
MySQL Storage Engine

MySQL Character Set

Support utf8, utf8mb4, latin1. Other encodings have not been tested yet.

Prerequisites

PrerequisiteDescription
Permissions for Account

See Permissions Required for MySQL/MariaDB.

Enabling Binlog

[mysqld]
log-bin=mysql-bin # Enable Binlog
binlog-format=ROW # Choose ROW mode
binlog_row_image=FULL # Changes include all column data

Parameters

ParameterDescription
parseBinlogParallel

Number of threads for parallel parsing of Binlog in Incremental DataJobs.

parseBinlogBufferSize

Size of the circular buffer for parsing Binlog in Incremental DataJobs.

maxTransactionSize

Maximum number of data rows per transaction. If exceeded, the transaction will be split and flushed in parts.

limitThroughputMb

Limit the throughput of incremental Binlogs.

extraDDL

Support synchronization of additional DDL, including PT, GHOST, ALI_DMS, and PT_GHOST.

needJsonEscape

Escape special characters in JSON to be written to the target database.

fullDataSqlConditionEnabled

Add filtering conditions in SQL during source data scanning. It only works in Full Data migration.

srcTimeZone

Source time zone, e.g., +08:00, Asia/Shanghai, America/New_York, etc.

Tips: To modify the general parameters, see General Parameters and Functions.


Target

Prerequisites

PrerequisiteDescription
Permissions for Account

See Permissions Required for MySQL/MariaDB.

Port Preparation

Allow the migration and sync node (Worker) to connect to the MySQL/MariaDB port (e.g., 3306).

Parameters

ParameterDescription
keyConflictStrategy

Strategy for handling primary key conflicts during write in Incremental DataTask:

  • IGNORE: Ignore conflicts (default)
  • REPLACE: Replace conflicts (optional)

dstWholeReplace

Convert INSERT and UPDATE operations into full row replacement in the Target.

deCycle

Enable filtering in bidirectional sync to filter DML/DDL with specific markers.

specialSqlMode

Set a specific SQL mode when initializing the connection between databases.

defaultGisSRID

Set the SRID for GIS data types.

dstTimeZone

Target time zone, e.g., +08:00, Asia/Shanghai, America/New_York, etc.

increParallelApplyStrategy

Parallel write strategy for relational databases in the Target:

  • KEY: Parallel writing to partitions separated based on primary keys.
  • TABLE: Parallel writing to partitions separated based on tables.
  • KEY_UPGRADE_TABLE: Parallel writing to partitions separated based on primary keys. Upgrade the partition to a table if there is an update to the unique key.

Tips: To modify the general parameters, see General Parameters and Functions.
