Connect To Foreign Tables

Connect To Foreign Tables

2007-10-04       - By James Card

 Back
The application I'm working on uses MySQL 5.0.41 and we also need to  
retrieve some data from a SQL-Server database in another department.  
SQL-Server has a feature (that I haven't tested) that allows it to make an  
ODBC connection to a foreign database and treat its tables as if they were  
local.

Is there any way to accomplish something similar in MySQL? I'd love to be  
able to create a view that joins data from my local tables with that from  
SQL_Server.
