MariaDB Overview

What is MariaDB?

MariaDB frees companies from the costs, constraints and complexity of proprietary databases, enabling them to reinvest in what matters most – rapidly developing innovative, customer-facing applications. MariaDB uses pluggable, purpose-built storage engines to support workloads that previously required a variety of specialized databases. With complexity and constraints eliminated, enterprises can now depend on a single complete database for all their needs, whether on commodity hardware or their cloud of choice. Deployed in minutes for transactional or analytical use cases, MariaDB delivers unmatched operational agility without sacrificing key enterprise features including real ACID compliance and full SQL. Trusted by organizations such as Deutsche Bank, DBS Bank, Nasdaq, Red Hat, ServiceNow, Verizon and Walgreens – MariaDB meets the same core requirements as proprietary databases at a fraction of the cost. No wonder it’s the fastest growing open source database. Real business relies on MariaDB™.

What do you like best about MariaDB?

MariaDB is essentially the same as MySQL, except it is community managed. Having said that, MariaDB is great to work with and it’s security is sufficient for our purposes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MariaDB?

As it is community managed, MariaDB (unfortunately) receives less updates compared to MySQL. Also, it is not the easiest software to get set up and secured for a production environment (whitelist-only connections to the database, etc.). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is MariaDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

MariaDB, being so popular, makes it easy to integrate with applications. Also, most software available that requires a database connection supports MariaDB (ie. application support is superb compared to something like Microsoft SQL). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best part of MariaDB is the support for multiple database engines without requiring separate licenses. Impressed by the functionality provided by InnoDB and TokuDB. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

None Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is MariaDB solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using MariaDB for highly transactional data that changes frequently. We also use MariaDB to archive and delete data from tables aggressively to keep them smaller, which in turn makes data manipulation and retrieval faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering MariaDB:

You should help to support the open source community by using them and supporting financially. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
