It was developed by the original developers of MySQL, led by Michael &#8220;Monty&#8221; Widenius, to ensure the continued availability of a free and community-driven database management solution after Oracle Corporation acquired MySQL.<\/p>\n<p>Switching from MySQL to MariaDB is easy for many programs, including WordPress. The software you&#8217;re already using, like CMS tools and apps such as phpMyAdmin, will still work smoothly with MariaDB. You can also move your data back and forth without any problems.<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_MySQL\"><\/span>What is MySQL?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>MySQL is a type of database that started in 1995. Back then, Microsoft and Oracle had popular solutions for databases.<\/p>\n<p>MySQL is a free and open-source database system that uses Structured Query Language (SQL). It&#8217;s one of the most commonly used databases globally, even though there are other options. It&#8217;s made in C\/C++, and it became popular because it&#8217;s free and open to everyone.<\/p>\n<p>However, when Oracle bought Sun Microsystems, some of the people working on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mysql.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MySQL<\/a> thought there might be a problem because Oracle also had a commercial database called Oracle Database Server.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Differences_Between_MariaDB_and_MySQL\"><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hyderabadwebhosting.co.in\/tutorials\/mariadb-and-mysql\/\">Differences Between MariaDB and MySQL<\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-708 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hyderabadwebhosting.co.in\/tutorials\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/mariadb-and-mysql.png\" alt=\"MariaDB and MySQL\" width=\"660\" height=\"408\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hyderabadwebhosting.co.in\/tutorials\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/mariadb-and-mysql.png 660w, https:\/\/www.hyderabadwebhosting.co.in\/tutorials\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/mariadb-and-mysql-300x185.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/p>\n<table border=\"1\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Parameter<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>MariaDB<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>MySQL<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Language<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s made using C, C++, Perl, and Bash<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<td>It is written in C and C++.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Speed Improvement<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>MariaDB is faster than MySQL.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/td>\n<td>MySQL is slower compared to MariaDB.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Larger and Faster Connection<\/td>\n<td>MariaDB has an advanced thread pool that can run faster and support over 200,000 connections.<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>MySQL&#8217;s thread pool can&#8217;t handle up to 200,000 connections at once.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Improved Replication<\/td>\n<td>In MariaDB, replication is more secure and faster.
