I am studying about SQL database analysis, and to go deeper I intend to run some practical tests with a DBMS, and I chose Mariadb for this.

Therefore, I would like to know if it is possible to use Mariadb for Clusterization and what would be the version of it for this purpose?

  • I believe that the studies aimed at Mysql will contemplate the Mariadb. That is, there is probably a lot more information about Mysql, so you can study with the old term and test in the new to confirm.

There are some options, but the one I know and have used personally (and would recommend) is the Mariadb Galera Cluster, a cluster multi-master for mariadb. A multi-master cluster is where any node has authority to read/write, all are "Masters", unlike a master-slave where only 1 "master" writes and the "Slaves" only read.

The world of database Clusterization is full of pineapples, if you want to give a thorough read this technical analysis of mariadb people. a very heavy reading, but it is not necessary to understand everything to get the general idea, and when choosing a database nothing better than to see its weaknesses.
