Install from DBdeployer
DBdeployer is designed to allow multiple versions of TiDB deployed concurrently. It is recommended for advanced users who are testing out new builds of TiDB, or testing compatibility across releases.
Similar to Homebrew, the DBdeployer installation method installs the tidb-server without the tikv-server or pd-server. This is useful for development environments, since you can test your application's compatibility with TiDB without needing to deploy a full TiDB platform.
