DanielLeens opened a new issue, #11278: URL: https://github.com/apache/seatunnel/issues/11278
## Background The JDBC and database connector docs already cover many common options, but several edge cases still lead to unclear answers for users: - `fetch_size = 0` means using the JDBC driver default, but users ask what the actual default is for MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, and other drivers. - Users ask whether old database versions such as Oracle 10g are supported by JDBC source or CDC source. - Users ask how database-specific types such as PostgreSQL `enum` map into sinks such as Iceberg. - Users ask about options such as `column_type_mapping`, but this option does not appear in the current Apache SeaTunnel docs. These should be documented clearly so users do not rely on guessed behavior. ## Goal Add a JDBC/database edge-case FAQ that documents support boundaries, type mapping caveats, and non-existent or unsupported options. ## Suggested scope Please update English and Chinese docs in the most suitable locations, such as: - `docs/en/connectors/source/Jdbc.md` - `docs/zh/connectors/source/Jdbc.md` - `docs/en/connectors/sink/Jdbc.md` - `docs/zh/connectors/sink/Jdbc.md` - connector-specific pages such as Oracle, Oracle-CDC, PostgreSQL, PostgreSQL-CDC, and Iceberg if needed - `docs/en/connectors/connector-faq.md` - `docs/zh/connectors/connector-faq.md` The update should explain: 1. What `fetch_size = 0` means and why driver defaults are not controlled by SeaTunnel. 2. Whether docs should list driver-specific fetch-size defaults or link users to driver documentation. 3. How to verify database version compatibility, especially for old versions such as Oracle 10g. 4. How PostgreSQL enum-like types are represented in SeaTunnel and what to check before writing to Iceberg. 5. Whether `column_type_mapping` is an Apache SeaTunnel option. If it is not, say so explicitly and point to supported alternatives. ## Acceptance criteria - The docs give direct answers for the edge cases above. - Unsupported or non-existent options are clearly marked instead of silently omitted. - English and Chinese docs are consistent. - The content is verified against current connector options and type mapping tables. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
