TiDB 6.5.3 Release Notes

Release date: June 14, 2023

TiDB version: 6.5.3

Quick access: Quick start | Production deployment

Compatibility changes

Behavior changes

  • When processing update event, TiCDC splits an event into delete and insert events if the primary key or non-null unique index value is modified in the event. For more information, see documentation.

Improvements

  • TiDB

    • Improve the performance of TRUNCATE on partitioned tables with Placement Rules #43070 @Lloyd-Pottiger
    • Avoid invalid Stale Read retries after resolving locks #43659 @you06

  • Tools

    • TiCDC

      • Optimize the way TiCDC handles DDLs so that DDLs do not block the use of other unrelated DML Events, and reduce memory usage #8106 @asddongmen
