Row_format of Mysql

If there are no varchar, text and their metamorphosis, blob and metamorphosis fields in a table, then the table is actually called a static table, that is, the row_format of the table is fixed, which means that each record occupies the same number of bytes. It has the advantages of fast reading and the disadvantage of wasting extra space.

If there are varchar, text and their metamorphosis, blob and their metamorphosis fields in a table, then the table is actually called a dynamic table, that is, the row_format of the table is dynamic, that is, the bytes occupied by each record are dynamic. It has the advantage of saving space and the disadvantage of increasing the time cost of reading.

Therefore, tables with a large amount of search queries generally exchange space for time and are designed as static tables.

There are other values for row_format:

DEFAULT

FIXED

DYNAMIC

COMPRESSED

REDUNDANT

COMPACT

Modify row format

ALTER TABLE table_name ROW_FORMAT = DEFAULT

The modification process results in:

Fixed--- > dynamic: this causes CHAR to become VARCHAR

Dynamic--- > fixed: this causes VARCHAR to become CHAR
