Early adopter that is in for the long haul

What do you like best about the product?
Blazing (and crash resistant) speed with Aria, safe transactions with standard MySQL syntax. Stable, predictable, growing set of features that satisfies every DB storage need. The ability to deploy delayed replication with relative ease is a bonus.
What do you dislike about the product?
Clustering side of the software can be very tedious to set up, and we've instead gone with a Master-Slave-Slave setup to ensure integrity
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Storage of millions of records per day from an aggressive statistical data collection approach. Tens of millions of data points stored and queried each day. all on standard IBM server hardware with reasonable amounts of RAM.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Run, don't walk, to this solution. Very easy to deploy, very easy to administer, blazing speed, and safeguards to ensure data integrity are all key reasons to choose this over the competition.

Great product for a wide range of database uses.

What do you like best about the product?
The commitment to open source model and th continued development of innovative features and integrations. The Galera synchronous cluster and Node.js MariaDB Connector are two recent ones that come to mind.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish they would finish the Aria DB engines features to make it on par with the InnoDB engine. I wish they would incorporate either the MyDumper or mysqlpump parallel backup tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There are several different products and professional sites in use that utilize MariaDB. DB performance is a definite benefit. Many application cross compatibility is another.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have a need of MySQL compatible DB server, I would highly recommend using MariaDB for stability as well as range of features and integrations.

Easy to use for many environment especially blogger.

What do you like best about the product?
Cluster function for wiki or WordPress, compatible with existing mysql. Most of the time I use it to serve woocommerce and it did really good. A lot of bash web server installation script may auto implement Mariadb to your server environment by default and compare to other paid DB, e.g. Oracle, it's works good enough for a blogger. It will be a good fit if you install the phpmyadmin for db control and edit.

What do you dislike about the product?
Many configs to follow and some old posts on website may confusing me.
The cluster function sometimes broken due to some notes reboot/dead and it can't auto recovered. It works ok in most of the time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In generally, I need to admin multiple Wiki and Wordpress and personal site, most of the time mariadb is still able to handle ecommerce site. Sometime you may need to use object cache to help high Database load.
Overall, maraidb is really an easy to use for a non critical site.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a free DB and not under high traffic, this is quite enough.

Perfect SQL database to store OpenStack information.

  • December 27, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Since MariaDB is a fork of MySQL, the database structure and indexes of MariaDB are the same as MySQL. This allows you to switch from MySQL to MariaDB without having to alter your applications since the data and data structures will not need to change.
What do you dislike about the product?
To make sure MariaDB maintains drop-in compatibility, the MariaDB developers do a monthly merge of the MariaDB code with the MySQL code. Even with this, there are some differences between MariaDB and MySQL that could cause some minor compatibility issues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used MariaDB for my OpenStack deployment. I scheduled inventory backups, via a scheduler (i.e cron) to run the appropriate commands to perform regular snapshots of my data.

MariaDB - Switching to mariaDb is easy with an open source feature

  • December 18, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best thing we talk about MariaDb is it has many several optimization techniques that tend to improve the performance, as it has better query performance.
It allows the parallel execution of commands resulting in multi processing and fast execution of the program.
It has an additional feature of thread pooling, a useful concept for the API.
MariaDb is compatible with almost every different platforms.
What do you dislike about the product?
The errors mesaages displayed in MariaDb are usually not very cleared.
So if bit description can be added than it will be more useful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MariaDb has several powerful storage engines. Mariadb is very much compatible with the MySQL version which completely opens up the possibility for us to switch to Mariadb seemlessly without any change required in the source code ,like when there are performance issues with another relational database we can switch to MariaDb. An intersing features that mariadb supports is virtual columns, and with this virtusl columns we are capable of performing the calculations at the database level.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Work bit on adding more detail to the errors dispayed.

That they pried MySQL out of Oracle's ugly clutches.
What do you dislike about the product?
That MySQL still exists and people still use it despite knowing that it's owned by a horrible organization that will betray them.

I've used MySQL based solutions for almost my entire career. This is a reliable product.
