| In Kvrocks the `SELECT` command is just a placeholder and does not switch between dbs. | ||
| Use [the namespace feature](https://kvrocks.apache.org/docs/namespace) instead if multiple dbs are needed. | ||
| The `SELECT` command is a placeholder by default (`redis-databases = 0`). When `redis-databases` > 0, it switches between databases (0 to redis-databases-1). Database 0 uses the default namespace, databases 1-N use `db1`, `db2`, etc. Enabling this disables custom namespaces. Use [the namespace feature](https://kvrocks.apache.org/docs/namespace) for multiple isolated databases without `redis-databases`. |

| A [the namespace feature](https://kvrocks.apache.org/docs/namespace) instead if multiple dbs are needed. | |
| Before [NEXT RELEASE VERSION], Kvrocks only allowed using [the namespace feature](https://kvrocks.apache.org/docs/namespace) to isolate your data. That said, the `SELECT` command is just a placeholder and does not switch between databases. And now, the Redis database mechanism is supported, and you can enable it by setting the `redis-database` to the database number you expect in the configuration file. | |
| To be noticed, we don't allow using the namespace feature and the Redis database at the same time. |
| | LASTSAVE | ✓ | v2.6.0 | Returns the timestamp of the last successful save to disk. Additionally, `LASTSAVE ISO8601` returns the time in ISO8601 format. | | ||
| | PING | ✓ | v1.0.0 | Checks if the server is alive, responding with "PONG." | | ||
| | SELECT | ✓ | v1.0.0 | simply returns OK. | | ||
| | SELECT | ✓ | unstable | Switches between databases when `redis-databases` > 0 (default 0: returns OK without switching). | |
