Congratulations to the entire team at Red Hat<\/a>, for the release<\/a> of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 (RHEL7). The release notes<\/a> have something important, under Web Servers & Services<\/a>:<\/p>\n

MariaDB 5.5<\/strong><\/p>\n

MariaDB is the default implementation of MySQL in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. MariaDB is a community-developed fork of the MySQL database project, and provides a replacement for MySQL. MariaDB preserves API and ABI compatibility with MySQL and adds several new features; for example, a non-blocking client API library, the Aria and XtraDB storage engines with enhanced performance, better server status variables, and enhanced replication.<\/p>\n

Detailed information about MariaDB can be found at https:\/\/mariadb.com\/kb\/en\/what-is-mariadb-55\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This is a huge improvement over MySQL 5.1.73 currently shipping in RHEL6. I\u2019m really looking forward to welcome more MariaDB users. Remember if you are looking for information, find it at the Knowledge Base<\/a>. If you\u2019ve found a bug, report it at Jira<\/a> (upstream) or Bugzilla<\/a> (Red Hat). If you want to chat with friendly developers and users, hop on over to #maria on irc.freenode.net. And don\u2019t forget we have some populated mailing lists: maria-discuss<\/a> and maria-developers<\/a>.<\/p>\n
