Before we dive into the differences between MariaDB and MySQL, we will provide a thorough examination of each relational database management system (RDBMS). While originally designed to be a drop-in replacement for MySQL, it evolved into its own distinct database management system and is now maintained and supported by the MariaDB Foundation.

Nevertheless, there are related components and processes, for example, virtualization infrastructure and storage systems (see image below), that can lead to problems in your Kubernetes infrastructure. Configuring storage in Kubernetes is more complex than using a file system on your host. Possible solutions.

Therefore, before we attempt to measure our database performance, we should know the system or cloud instance to be tested in detail. This allows us to know our operating environment and its capability. For storage, FIO is generally used. Operating System: Ubuntu 22.04 Database: MySQL 8.0.31

The use of open source databases has increased steadily in recent years. Past trepidation — about perceived vulnerabilities and performance issues — has faded as decision makers realize what an “open source database” really is and what it offers. What is an open source database?

On the other hand we have good old-fashioned native apps that you install on your operating system (a dying breed?

Without data backup mechanisms, there can be data loss or system downtime. Even worse, entire operating systems can crash, also resulting in data loss. An incremental backup, which is faster and requires less storage than a full backup, captures changes made since the previous backup. The software is truly open source.
