Overview of managing data in GreptimeDB, including storage location, basic SQL table operations, data updates, TTL policies, table sharding, region migration, region failover, and compaction.

📄️ Basic Table Operations

Covers basic table operations in GreptimeDB, including creating, describing, showing, altering, and dropping tables, as well as executing SQL statements through the HTTP API and understanding time zone effects.

📄️ Table Sharding

Explains table sharding in GreptimeDB, including when to shard a table, partitioning methods, creating distributed tables, inserting data, querying data, and inspecting sharded tables.

📄️ Region Migration

Explanation of how to perform region migration in GreptimeDB, including querying region distribution, selecting a migration destination, executing migration requests, and querying migration states.
