MySQL 8.0 Reference Manual Including MySQL NDB Cluster 8.0

25.6.16.4 The ndbinfo blobs Table

This table provides about blob values stored in NDB. The blobs table has the columns listed here:

Rows exist in this table for those NDB table columns that store BLOB, TEXT values taking up more than 255 bytes and thus require the use of a blob table. Parts of JSON values exceeding 4000 bytes in size are also stored in this table. For more information about how NDB Cluster stores columns of such types, see String Type Storage Requirements.

The part and (NDB 8.0.30 and later) inline sizes of NDB blob columns can be set using CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE statements containing NDB table column comments (see NDB_COLUMN Options); this can also be done in NDB API applications (see Column::setPartSize() and setInlineSize()).

The blobs table was added in NDB 8.0.29.
