Preface

Databases are all around us. Almost every website we visit and nearly every store we shop at has a database (or several) working quietly behind the scenes. The same goes for banks, hospitals, government agencies, theaters, doctors, amusement parks, and police departments. All use databases to store, sort, and analyze information.

This information comes in many forms and can be anything that can be stored electronically inside a computer. This includes books, catalogs, addresses, names, dates, finances, pictures, money, passwords, documents, preferences, tweets, posts, likes, blogs, articles, and many more. Databases are one of the primary pillars of modern life.

Your posts on Facebook and tweets on Twitter are stored in a database. All your financial information at your bank is stored in a database and so is your purchase history at your favorite online retailer. Your progress in your favorite online game? You guessed it. The record of when you last paid your water bill. You just can't get away from databases. They are quite literally everywhere.

There is a new database that has caught attention of the database community over the past few years like few others have. Its name is MariaDB; it is named after the youngest daughter of its creator, Michael "Monty" Widenius. First released in 2009, MariaDB may be relatively new, but it has a stellar parentage. It's a next-generation version of the popular MySQL database, also created by Monty. (you may have heard of it, but don't worry if you haven't).

MariaDB is open source . This means the source code is freely downloadable and is governed by a license that helps ensure the source code stays free and open to all. The MariaDB developers have also kindly provided installers for various operating systems.

Since its first release, MariaDB has gained a large, loyal following quicker than almost any other database. Today it powers tens of thousands of websites, big and small and is the database of choice for many companies in a wide variety of industries around the world, with hundreds of thousands of users.
