Abstract

MariaDB has been a forerunner in supporting ARM. Lately, MariaDB has accepted multiple contributions from the community that helps optimize it for ARM and also improved the distro coverage and the expanded ecosystem with support for surrounding tools.

All that is helping scale MariaDB amazingly well on ARM especially given ARM has more cores in turn more numa nodes.

Let’s explore the state of MariaDB on arm: recent scalability contributions, performance improvements and ecosystem expansion.
