MariaDB: Best Open Source DB better than MySQL

  • November 26, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The Development of MariaDB is more open and Vibrant as compared to MySQL and the simple reason is that MariaDB is open source while MySQL is owned by Oracle. Even the GitHub stats show that the number of contributors for MariaDB is way more than MySQL. The storage engines options are better in MariaDB since it excels in the number of storage engines and other plug-ins, most of the popular engines such as Connect, spider are part of the official releases where as in MySQL they are supported via Third party. MariaDB is compatible and easy to migrate i.e. it can easily get compatible to MySQL files.
What do you dislike about the product?
MariaDB should come up with better troubleshooting options e.g. GUI like SSMS for the SQL server. MariaDB is compatible with MySQL till 5.5 but it still lacks some of the features which were released with MySQL 5.6. It should work more on Fixing the replication issues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MariaDB was our main Database server for our internal project management. Also It was used by our Infrastructure division for some management tools.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
MariaDB is a good drop in replacement for MySQL, i use it everywhere instead of MySQL. It is well suited for medium scale business.

Una simple mejora de MySQL

  • October 30, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
El precio también es brillante, es decir, sin desarmar Muy consciente de las estadísticas de rescate. Extremadamente sólido para aplicar en estructuras de producción. El factor excepcional que aprecié aproximadamente de MariaDB es que se convirtió en muy fácil de investigar y usar. Además, las nuevas funciones normalmente son más rápidas para MariaDB.
What do you dislike about the product?
Es muy difícil descubrir qué es lo que no le gusta de MariaDB, supongo que la realidad es que no es tan ampliable como las contrapartes de NoSQL. Los problemas de escalabilidad mientras que los hechos están en un rango mayor de TB. Es cierto para una base de datos centralizada y de tamaño pequeño a mediano. configuraciones También, de vez en cuando hemos enfrentado problemas positivos con la replicación de la información. Además, de vez en cuando nos enfrentamos a problemas positivos con la replicación de datos.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lo usamos para muchas otras porciones únicas del programa. Usamos un MariaDB en nuestro servidor para alojar un Data Warehouse. Además, muchos programas como cloudera utilizan Maria DB como backend. Pequeñas aplicaciones a partir de consultas a ddbb Esto nos ha permitido reducir considerablemente la cantidad de mejora de la guía masiva que se produce al dividir páginas HTML con estructuras comunes i
Recommendations to others considering the product:
La actualización a MariaDB ha hecho las cosas mucho más fáciles para mí y para los estudiantes también. Encabezado, pie de página, etc. Lo usamos como un motor de base de datos, que se encuentra en todas las famosas distribuciones de Linux para el desarrollo de Drupal, especialmente. Haga que MariaDB se esfuerce más rápido y más confiable que MYSQL.

MariaDB is a great alternative to vanilla MySQL

  • October 29, 2018
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that MariaDB is maintained by a community-based foundation as opposed to being owned by a larger corporation, especially one that maintains another major relational database system, Oracle.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lacks some of the more "fancy" features of other, more established relational databases like MSSQL and Oracle.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MariaDB scales well and plugs into our PHP web application seamlessly, meets our needs and is easy to understand and administer.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Watch to ensure that MariaDB doesn't fall too far behind MySQL, or at least "holds its own" in terms of its divergence from the original fork from MySQL

  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Great open source DB with plenty of documentation. We use MariaDB exclusively for all our web projects. It uses mainly standard SQL statements, is easy to install, configure, and is well supported in terms of security updates. The price is also great (ie, free!).
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't much although if I had to say one thing it would for a better GUI interface to view/edit/delete data. MySQLAdmin could use an interface update,
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use MariaDB exclusively as the data store to all of our web/CMS projects. It is relatively stable and easy to set up. It uses mainly standard SQL statements, is easy to install, configure, and is well supported in terms of security updates. Can't be the cost (free) of this product!!!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Highly recommended open source, scalable database. It uses mainly standard SQL statements, is easy to install, configure, and is well supported in terms of security updates. The price is also great (ie, free!).

Free DB is best DB :D

  • October 23, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
FREE. No kidding, a database server this awesome and free pretty much sums it up. Needless to say the stability of MariaDB is phenomenal.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's very hard to find what to dislike about MariaDB, i guess just the fact that it's not as scaleable like the NoSQL counterparts? But then again i understand why it cant be so there's that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use MariaDB as an alternative to MySQL
I like how it fixes bugs faster than MySQL
It's very very stable
So easy to transition from MySQL to MariaDB
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're using MySQL, switching to MariaDB is just a breeze. If you're hesitating to switch, dont, coz it is like MySQL only better.

Open Source relational database with Enterprise features

  • August 30, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

The simple fact that this is an open source product is enough for me to like it. The reliability, ease to deal with, and the flexibility it provides is another point that I like about MariaDB.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can´t find a reason to not like this product. It´s a mature product with origins on open source projects and going through the biggest company alive then, which was acquired by the biggest company alive now. It has a past, present and bright future.

All of our applications that require a relational database make use of MariaDB, this includes local and web solutions.

Great Experience

  • August 14, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We used MariaDB to make use of Galera clustering. We found the command prompt and logging to be better than that of MySQL. Also, new features usually come faster to MariaDB. Extremely stable to use in Production systems.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much to dislike. There are a few caveats that need to be covered. It was intended to be a drop in replacement for MySQL but the project has deviated from MySQL since 5.5 release of MySQL. So care needs to be taken while migrating as issues are expected. It is still a smooth transition all and all if you are not using any legacy features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using MariaDB as our SQL Database for our backend application. We are happy with the performance and the stability it provides to complete our business goals.
