In the previous post, we explored how the MySQL Shell extension for Visual Studio Code brings database development directly into your editor. In this follow-up, we'll walk through how to connect to a HeatWave MySQL database which is hosted in the cloud on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and how to browse schemas and run queries, all without leaving VS Code. Here is an architecture diagram that gives an idea of how VS Code connects to the HeatWave MySQL DB system.

Fintech (financial technology) companies continue to disrupt the financial services industry. The technology they rely on is paramount; it often determines their ability to deliver an innovative solution exhibiting the performance, scalability, security, reliability, and cost-efficiency that will sway customers.

Efficiently loading CSV data into your MySQL environment is a crucial step for many analytical workloads, especially when dealing with the substantial datasets common in today's data-driven world. Both MySQL Shell's parallel import utility and HeatWave's Auto Parallel Load feature offer robust and effective solutions, each catering to slightly different needs and environments.

MySQL Shell's util.importTable provides a flexible and powerful way to import data from various sources, including local disks and OCI Object Storage, into your standard MySQL tables. It's a developer-friendly tool that offers granular control over the import process.

For those leveraging the analytical power of MySQL HeatWave, the sys.heatwave_load stored procedure, particularly with its Auto Parallel Load capabilities, simplifies the often complex task of getting data into the in-memory columnar store.
