After creating a local cluster for the TiDB database and visualizing the existing database via the show database command, I decided to create a database. And like many open-source databases, TiDB simplifies this activity by using a simple command as “create database.” Therefore, this post shows how quickly create a new database followed by the latest display of the existing databases:
mysql> SHOW DATABASES; +--------------------+ | Database | +--------------------+ | INFORMATION_SCHEMA | | METRICS_SCHEMA | | PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA | | mysql | | test | +--------------------+ 5 rows in set (0.00 sec) mysql> CREATE DATABASE mynewdbtechdb; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.18 sec) mysql> SHOW DATABASES; +--------------------+ | Database | +--------------------+ | INFORMATION_SCHEMA | | METRICS_SCHEMA | | PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA | | mynewdbtechdb | | mysql | | test | +--------------------+ 6 rows in set (0.00 sec)
