TiDB 6.0 Book Rush What is it?

It was initiated on April 22, 2022, starting with the goal of gathering the entire community to write a TiDB 6.0 usage guide. This extended into a series of community co-creation activities, including book title creation & voting, article popularity voting, article PR Review, and more.

After 3 months of trial, writing, reviewing, and voting, TiDBers collectively completed the community co-creation of “TiDB 6.x in Action.” This book is divided into six content modules: TiDB 6.x principles and features, TiDB Developer experience guide, TiDB 6.x manageability, TiDB 6.x kernel optimization and performance improvement, TiDB 6.x evaluation, and TiDB 6.x best practices. It gathers introductions, evaluations, trial experiences, and other valuable content about the new features of TiDB 6.x. We welcome your reading and feedback (feedback is always rewarded).

The book has also received strong recommendations from tech experts and community members, as detailed in the recommendation posters at the end of the article.

The default value of the tidb_gc_life_time parameter is 10m (10 minutes). You can adjust this parameter according to your needs. For example, if you want to set it to 24 hours, you can execute the following SQL statement:

SET GLOBAL tidb_gc_life_time = '24h';

After modifying this parameter, you need to wait for the next GC (Garbage Collection) cycle to take effect.
