Executing stored procedure from sql developer vs executing from database server - plsqldeveloper

We are monitoring the performance of a stored procedure for experimental purpose.
This stored procedure read a single table and updates 5 table. While monitoring, I was expecting it to use network traffic. But to my surprise there were no network traffic.
The SQL developer is on my local machine. My assumption is it would use client service to connect to database and run the stored procedure on the database.
Kindly confirm my understanding and provide additional details.
Thanks.

Two things to consider...
You mentioned that SQL Developer is on your local machine. Is the database there too?
SQL Server by default uses port 1433. Are you watching that port?
As commented below, If you're using Oracle, check port 1521.
If you are using Oracle and TNS, check tnsnames.ora file to see if a port is specified there.

I need connection to an Access Database from a mysql stored procedure to update tables i already create in mysql db

The access database is on server in folder. I need to create a stored procedure to connect to the access database and update the table data. It can be truncate then an insert. It is connecting via stored procedure to the access database i cannot figure out. It has to be done via a job on a schedule.
MySQL (the Sun- then Oracle- owned product) lacks the plumbing to connect to external tables unless they're on other MySQL servers. That is, it only has a FEDERATED storage engine. So, with MySQL you'll have to find some other way to handle your requirement; a MySQL event or other stored code cannot hit your Access tables.
MariaDB, the MySQL fork, has a CONNECT storage engine. It allows the server to hit external tables via ODBC, so you can hit Access with it. MariaDB is almost entirely compatible with MySQL, so maybe you can replace your MySQL server with it. The CONNECT documentation says this, however.
...these table types cannot be ranked as stable. Use them with care in production applications.
To me, that warning means don't do it!. Especially with a busy business-critical application (like a credit department might use) you don't want even a little bit of instability. If you truncate a table and then the reload fails, you'll be able to hear users yelling from the next county.
Your requirement is, I believe, to extract the contents of one (or more) Access tables and import them into a MySQL table. That kind of operation is called extract-transform-load etl. It seems you use SSIS for the purpose. That should work, because SSIS can connect to Access (of course) and to MySQL via the Connector/net or Connector/ODBC drivers.
But, scheduled SSIS packages get run from SQL Server database servers. You didn't say you have one of those at your disposal. If your org does have a production SQL Server instance, you can put your Access - to - MySQL package into it.
Otherwise you will have to figure out a way to run your scheduled etl job without relying on a database job (or event, as they're called in the MySQL world). For that you'll use the Task Scheduler on Windows, or a cronjob on a UNIX-derived OS like Linux or FreeBSD.
I bet you can do this work reliably from a Windows PowerShell script or a Linux shell script.

Creating custom MySQL servers in VB.NET at runtime

I was wondering if it is possible to create custom MySQL servers in VB.NET while working in visual studio at runtime so that if the server already exists it connects and if it isn't there, the code creates the server. I have searched for this everywhere but couldn't find anything. I would appreciate it a lot if someone guides me to the right path.
You could certainly write some .net code to start a MySQL server on your Windows box when an attempt to connect fails. You simply get a cmd.exe console with administrator privileges and give the command net start mysql.
But MySQL must already be installed on the box for that to work.
You might investigate Sqlite. It provides SQL locally to a .net program, storing your tables in a file called whatever.db. It has very similar .net API access to MySQL's Connector/Net and SQL Server's connector. It's in a NuGet package.
I don't completely understand your "custom MySQL servers" requirement. Sqlite gives you a way to use SQL in your application without connecting to a shared server. That may do what you need.
MySQL does have a CREATE SERVER statement in its SQL dialect. The purpose of this statement is to create a connection to another, remote, MySQL server. With that connection you can use the FEDERATED storage engine to access tables in the remote server. Of course, there is no way to run this CREATE SERVER statement unless your program is already connected to a MySQL server.
With respect, your "task which states to create a server at runtime" doesn't make much sense. Is there more to this requirement? What workflow needs this step? Is it part of the installation of some application software on a new box?

How to connect to a remote MySQL from an Azure SQL server/database

sorry if title is not so clear, probably I am not finding what I need due I do not know how to search
I have few MySQL servers is separated online servers (from different wordpress) and I want to load some of the data on those databases/tablets into a SQL database located on Azure.
inside Azure portal itself I do not see where to establish external connections, neither at server level, neither at database level
I download and install Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio, connect to the server, I can see my databse and the master one, Security with logins, and Integration Service Catalog, nothing else.
I was looking for something like:
https://www.jetbrains.com/help/go/db-tutorial-connecting-to-ms-sql-server.html#step-3-connect-to-microsoft-sql-server-with-datagrip
but nowhere ...
maybe something like this:
https://www.devart.com/odbc/mysql/docs/microsoft_sql_server_manager_s.htm
but no Servers objects option available on my SSMS
Can be this done?
Note: Azure database is a basic wfor now, if that is a limitation
Some choices.
In your SQL Server Management Studio create a linked server pointing to each MySQL instance. You found the instructions for that. https://www.devart.com/odbc/mysql/docs/microsoft_sql_server_manager_s.htm But it probably will not work in Azure SQL Server; you don't have access to the underlying Windows OS to install stuff like MySQL ODBC drivers, which you need. (You could ask Azure techsupport if they can help.)
In each MySQL instance, try creating a federated table connection to appropriate table in SQL Server. That cross-vendor federation stuff only works in MariaDB, however; MySQL's federation only goes MySQL <--> MySQL.
Write yourself a purpose-built extract / transform / load (ETL) program, and arrange to run it every so often. Program it to connect to all the servers involved, retrieve the data needing to be transferred from your MySQL servers, and update / insert that data on the SQL server.
(edit) You may be able to use command-line SQL client programs. mysqldump, with its --compatible option, may generate usable INSERT statements in a file. You then may be able to use sqlcmd to run those INSERTs on your Azure server. It's going to take some hacking, and may take using sed(1) or awk(1) to make the MySQL output compatible with SQL Server.
I believe the third option is the most robust one for production use.

How to access remote MicroSoft SQL Server database from a stored procedure in MySQL

I need to access a remote Microsoft SQL Server database from a stored procedure in MySQL database.
I googled and found that there is a way to access a remote MySQL using federated tables. But I couldn't find anyway to do access MS SQL Server. My exact requirement is, I need to write a stored procedure which can duplicate all the tables and data from a remote MS SQL server database to a local MYSQL database.
Please help..
In short this cannot be done with MySQL federated engine. However you can setup a link from the remote MSSQL server to a MySQL table using the linked server feature of the MSSQL server.
If you can set this up you can have a scheduled job populate the MySQL tables from the MSSQL server side.
I have done the above setup and it is not to difficult.
I would also investigate some ETL tool to do this as it sounds like a ETL job and not something you want to run via stored procedures.
Good Luck.

mysql Trigger to different host

I can use mysql trigger to same server and same host. Can I trigger in to different host. Is there any other method to do that.
Localhost -> 10.1.2.220
MySQL Triggers are possible to used on same hosted site. Definer of the trigger can be changes as you wish but difficult to handle with remote host.
Using of PHP SOAP client and Server is suitable to prevent your issue.
I haven't tried it myself, but take a look at the FEDERATED storage engine for MySQL http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/federated-storage-engine.html
