Operational considerations when using MariaDB Reader

  • The default value of MariaDB's wait_timeout is 28800 seconds (eight hours). Reducing this to 300 seconds (five minutes) can resolve a variety of errors such as "connect timed out" or "unexpected end of stream." See wait_timeout for more information.

  • Only one MariaDB Reader at a time can connect to a MariaDB database instance. Thus a single Striim application may not contain more than one MariaDB Reader. If a second Striim application attempts to connect to a MariaDB database instance that is already connected to a MariaDB Reader, the first application will halt.
