This approach involves partial and localized sorting, and often results in data overlaps, leading to increased resource consumption and lower performance and stability of TiKV. With the introduction of the Global Sorting feature in v7.4.0, data is temporarily stored in S3 for global sorting before being imported into TiKV in an orderly manner. This eliminates the need for TiKV to consume extra resources on compactions and significantly improves the performance and stability of operations like <code>ADD INDEX</code> and <code>IMPORT INTO</code>.</td>
