…who has an interest in MySQL and MariaDB surviving should contact the MariaDB foundation and ask about sponsoring it ... We have some big sponsors already, but not as many as we originally hoped for .. One problem we had was that we needed to prove that MariaDB is ‘good enough' to be able to attract paying customers ...."
So in addition to an Open Source product, you also need a business model that works. And be sure: the Open Source game is a marathon, it is not a sprint. …

…bottleneck. In surfing I found that MariaDB had "spun" out of mysql. MariaDB is a drop-in replacement for mysql, and is totally open source. My test bed is a mac-mini, and sure I can throw hardware at the problem, but its far more interesting to look at optimizing. So I used brew, a open-source package manager for osx, I installed MariaDb. I had a existing 20Gig database, and it picked it up, and used it just fine. The surprising thing is I saw a 30% increase in performance improvement, …

Ported a fix from MariaDB for the upstream bug # 63144 . CREATE TABLE or CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS statements on an existing table could wait on a metadata lock instead of failing or returning immediately if there is a transaction that executed a query which opened that table. Bug fixed # 1127008 ( Sergei Glushchenko ).
Fix for bug # 1070856 introduced a regression in Percona Server for MySQL 5.5.28-29.3 which could cause a server to …
…has implemented basic support for MySQL 5.6, Percona Server 5.6 and MariaDB 10.0. Basic support means that these versions are are recognized by XtraBackup , and that backup/restore works as long as no 5.6-specific features are used (such as GTID, remote/transportable tablespaces, separate undo tablespace, 5.6-style buffer pool dump files).
Percona XtraBackup can use XtraDB changed page tracking feature to perform the Incremental Backups now.

…Drizzle code base. However... for those using MySQL, Percona Server, MariaDB or any other of the MySQL branches/forks, you get to have these odd limitations.
Why do I discuss the FRM file? If we look at the MAX FIELDS define in MySQL, we'll see that it's defined as 4096. This, however, is not the true limit. To find out what the actual limit is, we must delve further into the FRM file.
