Re: [nmglug] MariaDB and WP-CLI

Does anyone have any insight into which would be a better choice for this update, MariaDB or MySQL?

Since MariaDB is a fork, they are for the most part interchangeable. I have a slight preference for MariaDB as it's not controlled by Oracle. For database-backed web software I used to run on MySQL, I now run on MariaDB, and haven't noticed any difference in day-to-day operation. -- Anthony J. Bentley
