MARIADB database management System is a branch of MySQL, mainly by the open source community in the maintenance, the use of GPL license. One of the reasons for developing this branch is that after Oracle acquired MySQL, there is a potential risk of shutting MySQL out of the source, so the community uses a branching approach to avoid this risk. MARIADB is designed to be fully compatible with MySQL, including APIs and command lines, making it easy to be a replacement for MySQL. For the storage engine, use XtraDB (English: XtraDB) instead of the MySQL InnoDB. MARIADB, led by MySQL's founder Michael Widenius (English: Michael Widenius), sold his company, MySQL AB, to Sun for $1 billion earlier, and since Sun was acquired by Oracle, MySQL's ownership also falls into Oracle's hands. Mariadb name comes from Michael Widenius's daughter Maria's name.
