MariaDB is a modern, open-source database management system and the continued development of MySQL. It combines high stability, performance and scalability with an open development model, making it an ideal backend for web, cloud and enterprise applications.
What sets MariaDB apart:
Open source & transparency: free to use, independent of proprietary vendors
High performance & scalability: optimized for large data volumes, complex queries and high availability
Compatibility: largely compatible with MySQL, supports numerous tools and frameworks
Security & reliability: ACID-compliant, with replication, clustering and automated backups
Flexibility: adaptable through modular storage engines, cloud integrations and containerization
This makes MariaDB a dependable foundation for data-intensive systems, from web platforms to enterprise applications, and a sustainable alternative to proprietary database systems.
Our experience with MariaDB in client projects
MariaDB is our central database solution for nearly all applications that need relational data. We have used MariaDB intensively for many years and have deep experience in operating it, optimizing it and integrating it into complex system landscapes. Through daily use in development and production environments, we know exactly how the system works, along with its strengths and quirks.
Understanding the strengths and mastering the challenges
We run highly available Galera clusters ourselves and know the specific requirements, challenges and pitfalls of such setups from practice. We can also provide well-founded advice and support on upgrades, both technically and conceptually. Performance optimization is a particular focus: we know how to design efficient queries, how to set indexes correctly and how to achieve fast response times even with large data volumes. We also have experience with dynamic credentials, for example through integration with secret management systems using rotating secrets.
Our contribution to stable MariaDB environments
We design, operate and optimize MariaDB systems built for stability, security and high availability. In operation, we rely on automated backups, both at the file system level and as SQL dumps, which are encrypted and transferred to external storage. This ensures recoverability, data security and long-term system stability. Our focus is on a clean architecture, clearly defined processes and tight integration into higher-level infrastructure and monitoring systems.
