How does MySQL replication work in azure database?
To create a replica in the Azure Database for MySQL service, Data-in Replication synchronizes data from a source MySQL server on-premises, in virtual machines (VMs), or in cloud database services. Data-in Replication is based on the binary log (binlog) file position-based or GTID-based replication native to MySQL.
Which is the best version of MySQL for replication?
The source server version must be at least MySQL version 5.6. The source and replica server versions must be the same. For example, both must be MySQL version 5.6 or both must be MySQL version 5.7. Each table must have a primary key. The source server should use the MySQL InnoDB engine.

How to create replication role in MySQL Workbench?

Do you need to enable GTID for data in replication?
All servers have gtid_mode set to the default value OFF. You don’t need to enable GTID on the source MySQL server specifically to set up Data-in Replication. If GTID is already enabled on source server, you can optionally use GTID-based replication to set up Data-in Replication too with Azure Database for MySQL Single Server.
