What do you like best about the product?
MariaDB offers stability and is open source, which minimizes costs. The important thing is that it is supported on a large platform of users who frequently publish very useful solutions. As for its configuration, it is very basic and does not need a lot of computer resources. I like the modification in terms of the structure of the table in reference to MySQL.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the debugging tool fails sometimes, because it does not analyze the missing indexes. I also found some flaws in the replication of the database.

I think MariaDB has given us security, because security patches are obtained frequently. Migration has never been so easy and usually has a good performance. Previously we used MySQL and the security versions were slow.

Look at the advantages and disadvantages between this and other databases to see if it works for your organization.
More intuitive and effective than MySQL
What do you like best about the product?
MariaDB is a great solution for partitioning, as implementation feels solid and fluid. Something I really like is that it always stays updated, as new releases for security patches are launched monthly, keeping MariaDB always on top in security matters. MariaDB definitely has some advantages over MySQL. The one I highlight the most are the Alert Table queries, as in MariaDB you’re able to check the progress in a process list, so you can always keep a visual track in the advances. This can’t be done with MySQL.
What do you dislike about the product?
In order to run MariaDB properly, you must a have a decent hardware, otherwise, writes may be effected and you may experience some troubles. Also, the compatibility with MySQL isn’t always happening, as the newer versions of MySQL don’t integrate well with MariaDB. You have to make some internal work in order to make this integration possible.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MariaDB is used by our company internally for many applications. The infrastructure team is in charge of using the database for setting up some management tools. This data helps when it comes to report to our customers, as well as keeping some metadata for analytical purposes. The integration with Galera gives this solution a great spot in availability.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
MariaDB is a great option for companies or personals wanting to work with open source software that demands active clusters. If you are a MySQL user, MariaDB integrates with MySQL so you can export your database from one to another. Adaption from one platform to another will be easy, as MySQL and MariaDB share similar interfaces, libraries, APIs and commands. However, consider you must have a great hardware in order to run MariaDB.
MariaDB is a great MySQL alternitve intergated well with Debian
What do you like best about the product?
The fact that it is interrogated with the lamp server package group on the Debian install is great! I can spin up a new server in a about and hour and my customers love it! It works almost perfectly like MySQL and is very easy to backup and maintain.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not much to dislike about MariaDB. There's nearly no learning curve from MySQL.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is just a great alternative to MySQL
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use PhPMyAdmin for a great experence
One of the best open source Database server.
What do you like best about the product?
MariaDB is one of the best relational database in world with very high valued features like Performance Analysis, Multiple Programming Languages Supported and Data Replication. This features are the best thing s which I liked in this product.
What do you dislike about the product?
This product is one of the best database server but it needs some improvisation also like Virtualization and Data Migration.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Maria DB helps me for solving Backup and Recovery related problems and analysis related problems.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is recommended over Mysql as a primary database.
The transition from MySQL was pretty fast
What do you like best about the product?
Like most users of MariaDB, we started with MySQL. When we wanted to switch, we thought the process would be tedious, but it actually was pretty quick and effective, with no reconfiguration or reprogramming required. This was great because we hold a big a database and this could’ve been problematic. All the reads on MariaDB are really fast and it’s compatible with all the apps developed to MySQLDB, so we still get to use the best features.
What do you dislike about the product?
A couple of times I have found cases of malformed data with no particular reason. Also, when erasing cache data it takes too much time for a process so simple. Also, I think it lacks of some features, such as one that allows user to compute median values for the whole database.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
MariaDB is implemented in our company as a database server for several of the online services we provide. It is used by all the developers on the IT department and all of them, me included, agree it’s better than MySQL.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
MariaDB is a great solution for companies looking for a solid RDBMS. It will give you a high range of management tools to add and perform effectively.
