Community open source based I do think is the best part about MariaDB, so its able to support a lot of things like framework languages (Java, Python, C) and more which is regularly maintained and I do think that wide scope has significant advantages. On premise option against cloud services I also think is really good, and then enterprise version as well with things like higher security, storage engines, logging etc are very good.

MariaDB is still primarily a relational DB, and I dont think there are huge advantages about that, but it was something that wasnt very strong of a positive for us. I did mention the open source community was a pretty good advantage, but I think compared to others like MySQL it is significantly behind a little in that facet.

It is one of the best database that I came across recently. It gives high performance and reliability Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I really don't like the UI to be honest. Also ux experience is not that great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

IT HAS GOOD ARCHITECTURE AND FUNCTIONALITY, WHICH MAKE IT AN EFFICIENT USER. EVEN FOR THE NEW USER, IT DID NOT NEED ANY MEMORY POWER TO MAINTAIN THE FLOWLESS USE OF THE DATABASE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
SOMETIMES THE ERROR DOES NOT SHOW THE CORRECT LOCATION, SO IT BECOMES VERY HARD TO CAPTURE THE PROBLEM AND, EVEN WORSE, TO GET THE SOLUTION FOR A PARTICULAR DATA BASE, AND THE PROCESS BECOMES TIME CONSUMING. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Being an open source software gives the edge to compete in the market faster and makes the customization available and effective and efficient features which are as per market demands Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The MySQL that it uses seems/looks a bit outdated, and this can be improved in terms of UI and backend processing. This will surely be a game-changing thing for MariaDB. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
MariaDB was one of the first of similar relational databases to offer JSON support, and I find they continue to provide more robust features related to JSON usage. It's also nice that it's a drop-in replacement for MySQL which makes migration pretty easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Since it has a smaller user base than MySQL, it might be harder to find tutorials or community examples for all use cases that you might be interested in experimenting with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The official website offers a lot of add-ons and complements, as well as a great community. DB administrators can access various tools, while DB administration is simple, robust, and compatible. This product has become one of the most trusted in the industry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Maybe it's not convenient for a bit stream of data. Further, it performs relatively well in terms of clustering, and it is constantly updated with new features and functions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

it is mighty yet it's open source. it truly brings transformative power to the internet landscape. RDBMS, ACID compliance, Triggers, Procedures, Sharding & Speed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
perhaps an inbuild first-party GUI to interact with the database as it is mainly used by a web application that often has visual web pages. almost always I've used it with PHPMyAdmin so the first party would be much appreciated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What is so special about maria DB is its speed, highly available features, and fault tolerance ability make it popular in the RDMS category.i have used it in an active-active mode in the Galera cluster, and its works magically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Maria's DB documnetation is so complex to understand, and maria's DB backup and restore procedure is challenging to understand, the other thing is if the quorum breaks synchronization of nodes disturb and have to fix the DB backup Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
