MySQL compatibility

  • TiDB does not have a concept of table cache as in MySQL. Thus, FLUSH TABLES is parsed but ignored in TiDB for compatibility.
  • The statement FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK produces an error, as TiDB does not currently support locking tables. It is recommended to use Historical reads for this purpose instead.
