MySqlConnector is an ADO.NET data provider for MySQL, MariaDB, and compatible servers, written in C# for .NET and .NET Core. It offers fully asynchronous I/O, high performance, and implementations of DbConnection, DbCommand, DbDataReader, and DbTransaction.

Use cases

  • connect to mysql from c#
  • query mariadb from .net
  • async database access in dotnet core
  • replace mysql.data connector with faster driver
  • use mysql with dapper or linq to db
  • connect to azure database for mysql
  • connect to amazon aurora mysql from .net

When to choose

  • building .NET applications that talk to MySQL or MariaDB
  • you need true async database I/O
  • you want an MIT-licensed driver safe for commercial redistribution
  • you need broad MySQL-compatible server support including cloud services

When to avoid

  • your application targets non-.NET languages
  • you require Oracle's official Connector/NET-specific features or support
  • you use a MySQL server older than 5.5
