Overall Satisfaction with MariaDB Platform
In a distributed application, on each host we have an instance of MariaDB Platform that collects data. Then every day the data is sent to a centralized server with another database. MariaDB Platform offers a great way to decentralize and to keep performances at top, including robustness and availability.
- Easy to install
- No big hardware required
- Clear configuration files
- Performances not comparable to e.g. Oracle
- Indexes not always updated
- Recovery procedures in case of dataloss are not linear
- Price
- Distributed systems
- Few resources asked
- High availability
- Little investiment high ROI
- Large support on internet
MS SQL Server is like a BlackBox in many cases. Honestly we did not need advanced functionality that SQL server offers, just a plain DBMS. MariaDB is easier to manage, cross operating system, "lighter" with better performances than SQL server. We went with MariaDB Platform even because it is free of charge, with better performances.
