Best alternative for Trigger in Mysql

I got a condition that, whenever the 3 columns

  (`OMIMAGE` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
  `suspendedCase` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
  `futureDated` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,) 

gets data, insertion into another table needs happen. All the 3 columns must get data.

Is there any other best alternative instead of using trigger.

On database level, you have nothing but trigger for this case.

There is another tiny feature which you can use for ensuring that value is not null:

create table tbl (
    OMIMAGE varchar(255) NOT NULL,
    suspendedCase varchar(255) NOT NULL,
    futureDated varchar(255) NOT NULL
)

But in this case you can only ensure that value is not null, you cannot guarantee that it isn't empty string etc...
