Hello, because there are too many versions of mariadb and the update frequency is too fast, many plug-ins or systems cannot provide compatibility and update in time. Generally, it is recommended to use mariadb as early adopters. It is also recommended to use mysql as the production environment database. More than 95% of users use mysql. Our technicians are also more familiar with mysql. If there is a problem in the process of using mysql, we can also solve it faster
If the current selected system cannot install mariadb, it is recommended that you use mysql
