Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Answers about visualizing MySQL (& MariaDB) data in Cortex automatically

How do I connect MySQL to Cortex using Kondado?
Start by adding MySQL (& MariaDB) as a data source in your Kondado account, then authenticate with your database credentials. Once connected, select Cortex as your destination and choose which pipelines you want to replicate. The setup requires no coding or intermediate databases, so you can begin visualizing data within minutes.
What kind of dashboards can I build with MySQL data in Cortex?
You can create custom reports tracking sales performance, customer behavior, inventory turnover, or financial metrics depending on what pipelines you replicate. Marketing teams often build dashboards comparing campaign spend against revenue data, while operations managers visualize supply chain efficiency. Since you control which data endpoints to include, your dashboards reflect exactly the KPIs that matter to your business.
How often does my Cortex dashboard update with new MySQL data?
Kondado lets you configure automated updates on a schedule that fits your business needs, ranging from every 5 minutes to daily refreshes. You choose the frequency when setting up each pipeline, ensuring your Cortex reports reflect recent activity without manual exports. This keeps your team aligned with current numbers whether you are monitoring near-real-time sales or daily inventory counts.
Can I share my Cortex dashboards with team members who don't have MySQL access?
Yes, once your data flows into Cortex, you can distribute reports to stakeholders through standard sharing features without giving them direct database access. Marketing directors can share campaign performance views with clients, while operations leads distribute supply chain metrics to warehouse managers. This ensures everyone sees the same updated information without exposing your underlying database structure.
Do I need technical skills to visualize MySQL data in Cortex?
No coding is required to connect your database or build visualizations using Kondado's no-code interface. Business users select pipelines through a simple menu, and Cortex provides intuitive tools for creating charts and graphs. Your team can focus on analyzing trends and making decisions rather than managing technical connections or writing SQL queries.
What specific KPIs should I track when visualizing MySQL data in Cortex?
Common metrics include customer acquisition cost, lifetime value, inventory turnover rates, and sales conversion funnels, though the best KPIs depend on your available pipelines. E-commerce businesses often track average order value and cart abandonment, while SaaS companies monitor user activation and churn rates. Choose metrics that directly inform your quarterly objectives and operational workflows.
Can I send MySQL data to other tools besides Cortex?
Absolutely, Kondado supports multiple destinations so you can replicate the same data to Power BI, Google Sheets, or BigQuery simultaneously. This flexibility lets different departments use their preferred visualization tools while working from the same consistent dataset. Your sales team might use Cortex while finance works in Google Sheets, both accessing current MySQL records.
How do I know which pipelines to select from my MySQL database?
Review your business reporting needs first, then select pipelines that contain the relevant information, such as sales transactions, user events, or product catalogs. If you are unsure which data endpoints contain specific information, Kondado displays available options after connecting your MySQL (& MariaDB) data source. Start with the core metrics you track manually today, then expand to deeper analytics as your reporting evolves.
