Hi Eric -
That's a great question.
There was a recent issue [1] that was fixed to allow parsing DDL
with the "SYSTEM VERSIONING" clause in Debezium 2.5.2.Final and
2.6.0.Final. But our current test suite does not test for these
specific types of tables, so its possible they're not supported if
the table metadata queries failed to record the table structures at
connector start-up. If you could run a test and let us know, that'd
be wonderful (assuming you're using one of or a later version of
Debezium mentioned above). The great news to my knowledge is that
these tables are recorded in the binlog.
As for the MariaDB connector, that standalone connector was released
in 2.7.0.Final last week, so its already in the community's hands
and ready to go. The documentation for the connector should be
coming soon, its still in the works, and we hope it doesn't lag
behind for too much longer. There is a preliminary PR [2] for the
documentation, if you need to find anything specific in the
meantime.
Let me know if you need or have any other questions.
Chris
