Type Alias tikv_client::Value

pub type Value = Vec<u8>;

The value part of a key/value pair. An alias for Vec<u8>.

In TiKV, a value is an ordered sequence of bytes. This has an advantage over choosing String as valid UTF-8 is not required. This means that the user is permitted to store any data they wish, as long as it can be represented by bytes. (Which is to say, pretty much anything!)

Since Value is just an alias for Vec<u8>, conversions to and from it are easy.

Many functions which accept a Value accept an Into<Value>.
