  1. dual disk is not easy for customers to understand. Dedicated mentions this is standard storage type.
  2. observability is lack of metrics, top sql, sql statement, even advanced metrics (clinic)
  3. backup is lack of export backup
  4. Basic is too short?only Tiflash? how about basic cluster management? cluster scale, pause&resume, maintenance window... You can refer to this doc https://pingcap.feishu.cn/wiki/V4i2wDKwli3kaKkbkJtcyHOsnLd

  1. Good one. @qiancai Let's update the wording here.
  2. In Observability, let's add:
  • In-app metrics (all plans GA)
  • SQL Statement (all plans GA)
  • Slow Query (all plans GA)
  • Top SQL (only GA for Dedicated now)
  • Events (all plans GA)

I will probably not include Clinic / Ops now as I felt Starter / Essential customers do not need to even worry about those existence...

  1. In Basic, let's add:
  • OpenAPI (all plans beta)
  1. Add another "Cluster Management" section beneath "Basic":
  • Pause & Resume (only GA for Dedicated)
  • Maintenance Window (only GA for Dedicated)
  • Recycle bin (only GA for Dedicated)

Private Endpoint & VPC peering should belong to "Connection".
Connection:

  • Public Endpoint: all support
  • Private Endpoint: all suppport
  • VPC Peering: only Dedicated.

Private endpoint & VPC peering also belong to security, so it's reasonable to put them in Security, especially when we want to emphasize security.
