Can I Use MySQL Utilities to Load Data Into InfiniDB?

E-mail Print PDF

Yes. MySQL supplies the load data infile command to load data into database tables. This command/utility is supported by InfiniDB and may be used, although it is not as fast as using the InfiniDB bulk load utility, cpimport. 

As an example, for the following table:


The following file: 
[root@qaftest7 local]# more t3.tst

1,2

2,3

3,4

May be loaded using the following: 
mysql> load data infile '/usr/local/t3.tst' into table t3 fields terminated by ',';

Query OK, 3 rows affected (0.96 sec)
