MariaDB Powered by GlobalSolutions

MariaDB is one of the most popular database servers and a drop-in replacement for MySQL. It is fast, scalable, and robust, supporting more storage engines than MySQL — including Connect, Spider, and TokuDB. MariaDB also features thread pooling capable of handling up to 200,000 simultaneous connections, making it highly versatile for a wide range of use cases. As a relational database, it provides a full SQL interface for accessing and managing data.

We have ensured the image is hardened to be secured from all existing vulnerabilities.
