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?

I mostly like simple SQL query access to store and retrieve data. Transaction management is also excellent. We can set auto commit false/true whenever we do more than one transaction in a single request. Using MariaDB in web application development is very easy and cost-effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MariaDB?

Sometimes handling a lot of data in a single table becomes very slow. Also in the case of stored procedures debugging is quite tricky. Also, It could be more beneficial if it supports scheduling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I am using MariaDB to store and display the data through REST APIs in many web applications. Web application development using MariaDB is quite easy and fast as it supports standard SQL syntax. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about MariaDB?

There are hundreds of costs involved when starting a business. You can only pay for a few and use the rest for core business ops. MariaDB is an open-source database used by many big organizations. It is built by devs of MySQL and runs just like it. Setting it up (for example - on AWS, MariaDB is the default database engine), operating it, and finding developers to work on it are easy and cost-effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MariaDB?

MariaDB has almost everything plus extra features when compared with MySQL. I don't have anything I dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering MariaDB:

First, consider if you are looking for a relational database or NoSQL. If you are looking for a relational database, MariaDB is the best choice right now. It integrates with almost all frameworks and doesn't add business expense. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

MariaDB makes integration with software projects easy. Being open-source it is free and saves the additional business cost of purchasing and managing licenses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's an open-source database that is lightweight and we can use this if we are working on any small to medium scale applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MariaDB?

I don't have so much to say but yes there are so many other options also available in the market to use I preferred it because of its cool functionality and stability. You should use it once in your career to have some great experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I worked on an application where we created the onboarding/offboarding automation for the organizational employees and we stored our source data in the MariaDB. I realized so many benefits such as ease, faster and having great functionality to access, manage and perform RDBMS operations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about MariaDB?

Comprises a Distributed architecture that provides failover and data backup. It supports SQL syntax for query processing. It can easily deploy on-premise servers or on public/private cloud setup. Security features are good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MariaDB?

MariaDB performs slowly when data size grows enormously, especially on a cloud setup. Indexing is a bit slow and can be improved. Also, it consumes a good amount of storage, which can be further optimized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering MariaDB:

MariaDB is a good database that supports many different data formats and is easy to use with SQL-like syntax. It can be considered for production use if very high performance is not a criterion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Implemented application with distributed architecture. MariaDB on private cloud setup completely separates the database tier from the application tier. It helps in the dynamic scaling of the application servers without any dependency on the database layer. MariaDB automatically provides a failover mechanism and data backup to keep critical applications running without failure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I switched from other databases to mariaDB because of it's availability and long term use, there are few of the databases which I think can be vanish over time like Mysql database.
