About:
MariaDB 11.0 is a community-developed, open-source relational database management system (RDBMS) that serves as a binary-compatible, drop-in replacement for MySQL. It offers enhanced performance, security, and stability, along with a rich set of storage engines and features like Galera Cluster for synchronous multi-master replication. Its main value proposition is providing a reliable, high-performance database backend for applications while maintaining compatibility with the MySQL ecosystem.

Key Features:

Binary-compatible drop-in replacement for MySQL
Enhanced performance, security, and stability over MySQL
Multiple storage engines including InnoDB, MyRocks, and Aria
Built-in Galera Cluster for synchronous multi-master replication
Open-source development under the MariaDB Foundation

Use Cases:
