I'm starting a new blog. First post, My Top 10 Feature Requests for TiDB: tidb-blog.vercel.app/posts/my-top-1…

Morgan Tocker before I read the post I guess that #1 SHOULD BE foreign key support and that's it, lol. A conversation with somebody shows that "suppose a RELATIONAL database that doesn't support foreign key, it makes the word 'RELATIONAL' a JOKE.". 天大的笑话😅 tidb-blog.vercel.app/posts/my-top-1…

New Blog Post: This is the most underrated feature in TiDB tidb-blog.vercel.app/posts/the-most…

Spotted in the TiDB docs: docs.pingcap.com/tidb/stable/sq… Different dimensions you say? Backstory: TiDB uses 2 configuration systems: the config file and system variables. Some options can be set in either, but the naming convention is different. It's totally not confusing at all :(

Interesting idea by Morgan Tocker bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=113… I think it’s doable but don’t think it’s as simple as taking multiple views from a single transaction. IIRC, handling the deletes makes it tricky. Perhaps easier to use a transaction per B-tree sub-tree. Once a sub-tree

If you are a user of gh-ost or pt-online-schema-change, take a look at Spirit! Presented by Morgan Tocker during the #MySQLBelgianDays #MySQL #MySQLCommunity
