Overall Satisfaction with MariaDB Platform

It is used across the whole organization. The main business problem that it address is to serve as a database for our own and third party applications.
  • Great stabiltity
  • Good performance on retrieving data
  • Easy configuration
  • Easy management
  • DDL operations do not work well on running MariaDB Cluster
  • Cluster management from CLI could be improved
  • Improvement of our data storage needs
  • Average ROI
  • Improvement of our data availability
I've only used MariaDB Platform.
Yes, I would recommend MariaDB Platform support because they answer very fast and with detailed information. They also help you with the design of the storage infrastructure, not only with the maintenance problems. On the other hand, this service is a bit expensive.

Do you think MariaDB Platform delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with MariaDB Platform's feature set?

Yes

Did MariaDB Platform live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of MariaDB Platform go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy MariaDB Platform again?

Yes

If you use a MariaDB Cluster, it is well suited in scenarios where your tables don't change, because if you perform DDL operations on a running cluster, you will break it, so you must prepare a downtime window to perform this type of operations. If you don't need a cluster, I think MariaDB Platform works fine in almost every scenario.
