Question
Why is the SQL Server connector skipping 0x
from the column values while replicating the data to the warehouse?
Environment
Connector: SQL Server
Answer
SQL Server uses 0x
only to represent binary values and the same is not a part of the original column value as mentioned here.
For example, If the SQL server shows the binary column value as 0x34556G9898
then, only 34556G9898
will be replicated to the warehouse.

Cause
SQL Server uses 0x
as an indication that the value is binary.
