Question [Poll] MariaDB vs MySQL

[Tomek]

Hi,

what are you using on yours servers, MariaDB or MySQL and why?

 

[Bitpalast]

MariaDB 10.1 or newer (Plesk officially only supports versions up to 10.1) features many more SQL gimmicks compared to default MySQL, e.g. full text indexing, sub-query optimization, InnoDB table defragging, role-based user management etc. On high loads, a MariaDB system normally processes SQL queries faster than MySQL.

I would add Percona to this poll

6:0 for MariaDB.

Thanks Peter for the fantastic response!
