Learn about configuring database connections for Oracle GoldenGate for MySQL.

Oracle GoldenGate for MySQL is packaged with a MySQL client and uses that client to connect to MySQL databases. Connections are established by using a direct connection and supplying the database server host, port, database name, and other information.

Connections are created manually by adding a database connection to the Administration Service's web interface or through the Admin Client.

To set up the database connection from Oracle GoldenGate for a MySQL deployment, see Add Database Credentials.
