MySQLマニュアル、5.6と5.7の違い(Level 2)

この記事は、2015年「MySQLマニュアルを読む」アドベントカレンダーの22日目です.

 昨日の日記では、MySQLマニュアルのもくじより、レベル1(章レベル)の相違点について紹介しました。
今日は、その続きで、レベル2(節レベル)の相違を見ていきます。
なお、ここで章番号は、MySQL 5.7 マニュアルの章番号で書きます(MySQL 5.6 のマニュアルではなく)。


まず第1章General Information より、 1.5 に新たな節が追加されています。
1.5 Server and Status Variables and Options Added, Deprecated, or Removed in MySQL 5.7
MySQL 5.7 では多くの変数類(サーバ変数、ステータス変数、オプション)が変更になっています。過去の悪しきしがらみとの決別をようやくこのバージョンで決断したな、と評価できるところもあり、そんな情報がここにまとめられています。

続いて、11章と12章。MySQL 5.7 でJSON対応したのを受けて、各章に JSON型についての説明および、JSON関係の関数についての説明の節が追加されました。
11.6 The JSON Data Type
12.16 JSON Functions


14章。細かいことですが、14.6節が、従来の「InnoDB Table Compression」から「InnoDB Table and Page Compression」へと変更されています。圧縮が、テーブルだけでなくページも対象に加わったということでしょうか(中身はまだ読んでない)。
14.6 InnoDB Table and Page Compression

17.1は、表現上の変更なので、良いでしょう。
(Replication Configuration から Configuring Replication へ)

18章の前にあった MySQL Cluster(NDB)の章が除外されたので、18章から21章まで、MySQL 5.6マニュアルの章とひとつずつずれます。(MySQL 5.6 マニュアルでは 19章から22章)

21章 INFORMATION_SCHEMA の章では、1節が追加され、2節が除去されています。

追加:20.8 The INFORMATION_SCHEMA FILES Table
除外:旧21.30 INFORMATION_SCHEMA Tables for MySQL Cluster
除外:旧21.31 Thread Pool INFORMATION_SCHEMA Tables

22章が新たに追加されたのは機能の日記のとおり。sysスキーマについての章です。
(つまりMySQL 5.6 と比べて、章は、1増1減なので、トータルで26個の章から構成されているところは、結果として変わりません)


こんな感じ。
sysスキーマJSONの、章または節レベルでの情報追加が、やはり MySQL 5.7 の「ウリ」として、マニュアルでも目立っていますね。
