System limits
This topic describes the rules and limits that apply when you use StarRocks.
StarRocks uses the MySQL protocol for communication. You can connect to the StarRocks cluster via a MySQL client or JDBC. We recommend that you use a MySQL client whose version is 5.1 or later. Versions earlier than 5.1 do not support usernames that are longer than 16 characters.
Naming conventions for catalogs, databases, tables, views, partitions, columns, usernames, and roles:
- The name can only consist of digits (0-9), letters (a-z or A-Z), and underscores (_). Usernames can be all digits.
- The name cannot exceed 64 characters in length, among which the catalog, database, table, and column names cannot exceed 1023 characters in length.
- Catalog, database, table, view, partition, and roles names must start with a lowercase or uppercase letter.
- Column names can start with an underscore (_).
- Catalog, database, table, view, username, and role names are case-sensitive. Column and partition names are not case-sensitive.
Naming conventions for labels: You can specify the label of a job when you import data. The label name can consist of underscores (_), letters (a-z or A-Z), and digits (0-9), and cannot exceed 128 characters in length. The label name has no requirement for the starting character.
When you create a table, the key column cannot be of the FLOAT or DOUBLE type. You can use the DECIMAL type to represent decimals.
The maximum length of a VARCHAR value varies in different versions:
- In versions earlier than StarRocks 2.1, the length ranges from 1 to 65533 bytes.
- [Preview] In StarRocks 2.1 and later versions, the length ranges from 1 to 1048576 bytes. Maximum length of a VARCHAR value = Maximum row size (1048578 bytes) - Length prefix (2 bytes). The length prefix indicates the number of bytes in the value.
The default length is 1 byte.
StarRocks supports only UTF-8 encoding, not GBK.
StarRocks does not support modifying column names in tables.
By default, a query can be nested with a maximum of 10,000 subqueries.
