MariaDB
MySQL-compatible database for legacy and web applications
About this program
Some applications only speak MySQL. MariaDB satisfies them without bringing a proprietary licence or an unpredictable change stream into the platform.
Features
- Drop-in compatible with MySQL clients and drivers
- Galera cluster option for multi-master setups
- Per-user resource limits and query timeouts
- Community governance, no single-vendor control
Why we chose it
Because application compatibility should not dictate platform ownership. Where a workload needs MySQL specifically, MariaDB provides it without the licensing question.
