MySQL binary values
MySQL BINARY values are supported in replication, with the required zero-padding preserved for BINARY(n) columns during streaming.
MySQL BINARY values were not consistently represented during replication, particularly for fixed-width binary columns.
Artie now supports MySQL binary values and preserves the required zero-padding for BINARY(n) during streaming.
Why this matters
- Replicate MySQL schemas that use binary identifiers and fixed-width values
- Preserve the source representation instead of losing significant padding
