How to forward logs from Mysql DB server's table to Chronicle cloud or Chronicle Forwarder

[santhoshact]

Hi,

We have a software product which writes logs to specific tables on Mysql DB on a Windows server, we need to forward those logs either directly to Chronicle or through forwarder, can anyone guide me how can i accomplish this?

Thanks in advance

For on prem logs like you have you're going to want to use a forwarder. Here is the "preferred" method using Chronicle forwarder for Windows on Docker. Keep in mind you'll be installing Docker with PowerShell commands; just go through the instructions carefully.

Chronicle Forwarder doesn't support reading from MySQL, i recommend trying out Bindplane

No personal experience with the MySQL source but it looks straightforward enough in the docs, and we've had experience with Chronicle as destination in Bindplane and it works great.
