To add: The business only requires OLTP queries and needs to use TiCDC for cross-region multi-center data synchronization.

TiDB directly supports multi-center deployment in different locations, you just need to configure the labels properly.

Version 7.5 will do. You can also wait a few months and go straight to version 8.

Use 7.5, otherwise, you’ll have to upgrade later.

Currently, it seems to be 7.5. As long as you don’t use the latest version and it has been verified for a period of time, it should be fine.

For example, if the latest version is 7.5.0 and the newer version is 7.1, I will upgrade to the latest patch version of 7.1.
