In MySQL 8.4, it is possible to log partial updates to JSON documents (see Partial Updates of JSON Values). The logging behavior depends on the format used, as described here:
Statement-based replication. JSON partial updates are always logged as partial updates. This cannot be disabled when using statement-based logging.
Row-based replication.
JSON partial updates are not logged as such by default, but
instead are logged as complete documents. To enable logging of
partial updates, set
binlog_row_value_options=PARTIAL_JSON
.
If a replication source has this variable set, partial updates
received from that source are handled and applied by a replica
regardless of the replica's own setting for the variable.
