MariaDB 10.11 is LTS
Important news: MariaDB 10.11, which just was declared RC, is a long-term maintenance version. The industry standard term to refer to that concept is LTS (as in long-term support), and we too use this term for the releases that get a significantly longer lifetime of bug fixes.

Firstly, the purpose of an LTS is to reassure users – and, in particular, Linux distros – that a certain version will […]

replicate_rewrite_db as a system variable in MariaDB
MariaDB 10.11.0, our latest preview release, features quite a number of improvements. The one we’ll talk about here is replicate-rewrite-db. This option has become a system variable from 10.11.0 based on MDEV-15530. Before this version it was just an option used by the mariadbd and mariadb-binlog binaries. There have been no behaviour changes with the option; it has simply become a dynamic variable.
How to try out this feature
The fastest way is to take MariaDB 10.11 for a spin […]

MariaDB metrics errors – a post-mortem
I’m going to start this blog post by saying that I made a mistake, a mistake that means all of the metrics blog posts so far have been made with erroneous data. As part of our openness value I will give a post-mortem of the issue here.

This one trick can make MariaDB 30x faster!
Yes, it is a bit of a click-bait title, but in this case running one SQL command did improve a community user’s performance by that much. It could help you too.
The story
A community user posted in a couple of places that when migrating a large WordPress installation to MariaDB that they were seeing a certain query performing terribly. The query was taking 1.5 seconds to execute and it was clear from the explain plan that the optimizer was […]
