TM1 Forum

Hello all

I wonder if any of you already connected TM1 and Turbo Integrator to a MySQL database, running on Linux?
Or connected C10 to that kind of database?

I found this useful URL:

But I did not test it yet. Can anyone share his/her experience?

Thanks in advance for any feedback,

Wim

I've never connected TM1 and MySQL but I've done a good bit of development with MySQL and find it to be a robust database system. As long as you don't need SSIS then it can do most everything SQL server can. I have also connected to a MySQL instance with that ODBC driver, again with no issues. I see no reason why it wouldn't work fine with TM1.

Hi Wim,

I have customers where I link from TI to MySQL (read/write) using the ODBC connector without problems. All on Windows though.

Hello,

Thank you for the feedback, I will investigate further and report if I encounter anything interesting / unforeseen / ...

Have a nice day,

Wim

Hi Wim,

For what it's worth, I gave this a try using CX (The TM1 bit) and encountered no problems. I only pulled data from a system table rather than any serious testing though. Of course ODBC should just work irrespective of things like the underlying OS of either client or server.

Note, this links to the Linux driver. I assumed (perhaps incorrectly) that you were running MySQL on Linux and needed to connect from a TM1 server running windows of some sort in which case you'd want the appropriate windows driver.

Hello asutcliffe and others,

Thank you for testing. A colleague of mine set it all up yesterday.
Turns out that Turbo Integrator had no problem at all to connect to the MySQL on Linux.
