# MySQL
The MySQL engine allows you to perform `SELECT` queries on data that is stored on a remote MySQL server.
## Creating a Table
```sql
CREATE TABLE [IF NOT EXISTS] [db.]table_name [ON CLUSTER cluster]
(
name1 [type1] [DEFAULT|MATERIALIZED|ALIAS expr1] [TTL expr1],
name2 [type2] [DEFAULT|MATERIALIZED|ALIAS expr2] [TTL expr2],
...
INDEX index_name1 expr1 TYPE type1(...) GRANULARITY value1,
INDEX index_name2 expr2 TYPE type2(...) GRANULARITY value2
) ENGINE = MySQL('host:port', 'database', 'table', 'user', 'password'[, replace_query, 'on_duplicate_clause']);
```
See a detailed description of the [CREATE TABLE](../../query_language/create.md#create-table-query) query.
The table structure can differ from the original MySQL table structure:
- Column names should be the same as in the original MySQL table, but you can use just some of these columns and in any order.
- Column types may differ from those in the original MySQL table. ClickHouse tries to [cast](../../query_language/functions/type_conversion_functions.md#type_conversion_function-cast) values to the ClickHouse data types.
**Engine Parameters**
- `host:port` — MySQL server address.
- `database` — Remote database name.
- `table` — Remote table name.
- `user` — MySQL user.
- `password` — User password.
- `replace_query` — Flag that converts `INSERT INTO` queries to `REPLACE INTO`. If `replace_query=1`, the query is substituted.
- `on_duplicate_clause` — The `ON DUPLICATE KEY on_duplicate_clause` expression that is added to the `INSERT` query.
Example: `INSERT INTO t (c1,c2) VALUES ('a', 2) ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE c2 = c2 + 1`, where `on_duplicate_clause` is `UPDATE c2 = c2 + 1`. See the [MySQL documentation](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/insert-on-duplicate.html) to find which `on_duplicate_clause` you can use with the `ON DUPLICATE KEY` clause.
To specify `on_duplicate_clause` you need to pass `0` to the `replace_query` parameter. If you simultaneously pass `replace_query = 1` and `on_duplicate_clause`, ClickHouse generates an exception.
Simple `WHERE` clauses such as ` =, !=, >, >=, <, <=` are executed on the MySQL server.
The rest of the conditions and the `LIMIT` sampling constraint are executed in ClickHouse only after the query to MySQL finishes.
## Usage Example
Table in MySQL:
```text
mysql> CREATE TABLE `test`.`test` (
-> `int_id` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
-> `int_nullable` INT NULL DEFAULT NULL,
-> `float` FLOAT NOT NULL,
-> `float_nullable` FLOAT NULL DEFAULT NULL,
-> PRIMARY KEY (`int_id`));
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0,09 sec)
mysql> insert into test (`int_id`, `float`) VALUES (1,2);
Query OK, 1 row affected (0,00 sec)
mysql> select * from test;
+--------+--------------+-------+----------------+
| int_id | int_nullable | float | float_nullable |
+--------+--------------+-------+----------------+
| 1 | NULL | 2 | NULL |
+--------+--------------+-------+----------------+
1 row in set (0,00 sec)
```
Table in ClickHouse, retrieving data from the MySQL table created above:
```sql
CREATE TABLE mysql_table
(
`float_nullable` Nullable(Float32),
`int_id` Int32
)
ENGINE = MySQL('localhost:3306', 'test', 'test', 'bayonet', '123')
```
```sql
SELECT * FROM mysql_table
```
```text
┌─float_nullable─┬─int_id─┐
│ ᴺᵁᴸᴸ │ 1 │
└────────────────┴────────┘
```
