Research direction
Open dm/dm-best-practices.md on the release-8.5 branch and locate the deployment-plan recommendation table. Clarify that N is the number of upstream data sources, then check the surrounding English text and table for consistent wording. Done means the deployment range is unambiguous without changing the Japanese translation.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
What is affected
dm/dm-best-practices.md (English source, release-8.5 branch and likely master), in the deployment-plan recommendation table:
Deploy 1~N DM-worker nodes according to the number of upstream data sources. Generally, 1 DM-worker node is recommended.
N is used but never defined anywhere in the surrounding text or table. A reader has no way to know what N refers to (e.g., "the number of upstream data sources" is stated as the basis for the count, but it's not explicitly tied back to the N symbol).
Suggested fix
Clarify what N represents, e.g.:
Deploy 1 to N DM-worker nodes, where N is the number of upstream data sources. Generally, 1 DM-worker node is recommended.
Context
Found while reviewing CodeRabbit feedback on a Japanese translation PR (pingcap/docs#23635) — the JA translation faithfully mirrors this same ambiguity from the EN source, so per this repo's translation convention the fix belongs here in the EN source, not in the JA-only PR.
