I use window functions all the time in redshift, but can't use them in MySQL because they weren't introduced until version 8.0

This needs to get implemented. MySQL 5.6 is over 8 years old. Even the latest version MySQL 8 is 3 years old.

This really needs to move forward.. we need to be able to use CTE to optimize queries.

Any updates for this?

Another significant addition to later versions is the JSON parser! Probably one of the most underrated functions added that would be especially helpful for most of our source datasets coming from connectors that cant flatten nested objects or more importantly, we bring in the data still nested to keep the row count low on each call.

Aside from missing windows and JSON functions in MySQL 5.6 there are security flaws to consider. This is pretty sad that we are still stuck on MySQL version 5.6.37-82.2-82.2. While I realize that Magic ETL is all that there are still a lot of people who find the MySQL dataflows to be their preference.
So I drop my token in the basket to please upgrade MySQL when possible. Hopefully in 2023.
