A framework that doesn’t make you cry.
Stay tuned to learn how you can get involved and contribute to the project!
If you don’t known what Buildbot is and what benefits it brings to MariaDB please check out this this quick introduction.
🤔 Just, why?
Over the years, the Buildbot project within MariaDB has undergone numerous transformations, constantly shaped by the requirements it needed to meet.
When I joined MariaDB in 2024, I was initially a bit overwhelmed by the complexity of the codebase, a complexity that later turned out to stem mainly from the intertwining of implementation details with the simple core principles of BuildBot, such as builders, factories, builds, and workers.

I think you’ve come to expect that every collaboration with Intel leads to meaningful, well-executed projects that bring great value to the community. This time, we’re spreading our wings towards empowering enterprises to deploy AI solutions, and we’re excited to show how MariaDB Vector fits into the Open Platform for Enterprise AI (OPEA).
🤖 Open Platform for Enterprise AI
The Open Platform for Enterprise AI, or simply OPEA, is a new sandbox-level project within the LF AI & Data Foundation where Intel plays a pivotal role in its active development and once again it shows its strong commitment to open-source innovation.

In 2023, Intel launched Intel® Trust Domain Extensions (Intel® TDX), their latest Confidential Computing technology that ensures data in use protection for hardware-isolated virtual machines and verified hardware and software integrity through attestation.
In this blog post, we will show that MariaDB Server can run correctly on an Intel® TDX enabled VM and that the in-memory data is protected from outside actors, even from the host OS running the VM. By coupling Intel’s Confidential Computing technology with MariaDB Server build in data-at-rest and data-in-transit protection, customers can gain an end-to-end protected solution.
