</h4><p>Support is organized into tiers based on complexity and urgency:</p>
<p><strong>Self-Service Support</strong> - Documentation, guides, and tutorials enable independent problem-solving for common scenarios and learning. Most questions find answers through comprehensive written resources.</p>
<p><strong>Community Support</strong> - Forums, chat channels, and community discussion enable peer-to-peer assistance. Community members share experiences, solutions, and best practices, often providing rapid informal support.</p>
<p><strong>Issue Tracking</strong> - Public issue tracker enables bug reports, feature requests, and technical discussions. Maintainers and community members collaborate on diagnosis and resolution.</p>
<p><strong>Professional Support</strong> - Commercial support options provide guaranteed response times, escalation paths, and dedicated assistance for mission-critical deployments.</p>

</h4><p><strong>Installation:</strong></p>
<p>Q: What Zig version is required?
A: Zig 0.1.0 or later is required for building Geode.</p>
<p>Q: Can I run Geode on Windows?
A: Yes, using WSL2 (Windows Subsystem for Linux 2).</p>
<p>Q: How do I install client libraries?
A: Each client has specific installation instructions in its README.</p>
<p><strong>Configuration:</strong></p>
<p>Q: What port does Geode use?
A: Default port is 3141 (QUIC/UDP). Alternative port 8443 is also supported.</p>
<p>Q: How do I enable TLS?
A: Geode requires TLS for all connections. Provide certificate and key via –cert and –key flags.</p>
<p>Q: How do I increase connection limit?
A: Use –max-connections flag when starting server.</p>
<p><strong>Operations:</strong></p>
<p>Q: How do I backup Geode data?
A: Copy the data directory using rsync or file system snapshots.</p>
<p>Q: How do I upgrade Geode?
A: Stop server, replace binary, restart server. Backup data first.</p>
<p>Q: How do I monitor Geode?
A: Use PROFILE command for queries, system tools for resources, and logs for errors.</p>
<p><strong>Querying:</strong></p>
<p>Q: What query language does Geode use?
A: ISO/IEC 39075:2024 GQL (Graph Query Language).</p>
<p>Q: How do I optimize slow queries?
A: Use PROFILE command to identify bottlenecks, add indexes, restructure queries.</p>
<p>Q: How do I handle transactions?
A: Use BEGIN TRANSACTION, COMMIT, and ROLLBACK commands.</p>
