## MariaDB: The innovative open source database
|
|
|
|
MariaDB was designed as a drop-in replacement of MySQL(R) with more
|
|
features, new storage engines, fewer bugs, and better performance.
|
|
|
|
MariaDB is brought to you by the MariaDB Foundation and the MariaDB Corporation.
|
|
Please read the CREDITS file for details about the MariaDB Foundation,
|
|
and who is developing MariaDB.
|
|
|
|
MariaDB is developed by many of the original developers of MySQL who
|
|
now work for the MariaDB Corporation, the MariaDB Foundation and by
|
|
many people in the community.
|
|
|
|
MySQL, which is the base of MariaDB, is a product and trademark of Oracle
|
|
Corporation, Inc. For a list of developers and other contributors,
|
|
see the Credits appendix. You can also run 'SHOW authors' to get a
|
|
list of active contributors.
