What is the difference between MySQL and MariaDB? Why don’t you offer MySQL?

MariaDB is a fork of MySQL, initiated by the original lead developer of MySQL after Oracle acquired MySQL. The goal was to continue developing the software while maintaining 100% compatibility (binary compatibility) with MySQL.

Thanks to the constant maintenance of the project by the community, many providers and a large part of all Linux distributions have recently switched to MariaDB as the SQL server. To also offer you a modern SQL database solution, we follow suit and configure all our database servers with MariaDB.
