Character Sets

GaussDB allows you to specify the following character sets for databases, schemas, tables, or columns.

**Table 1** Character sets
No.	MySQL	GaussDB
1	utf8mb4	Supported
2	gbk	Supported
3	gb18030	Supported

Currently, GaussDB does not perform strict encoding logic verification on invalid characters that do not belong to the current character set. As a result, such invalid characters may be successfully entered. However, an error is reported during verification in MySQL.
