Galera Cluster

In order to handle increasing load and especially when that load exceeds what a single server can process, it is best practice to deploy multiple MariaDB Servers with a replication solution to maintain data consistency between them. MariaDB Enterprise Cluster and MariaDB Galera Cluster are both based on Galera Cluster, which is multi-primary replication solution that serves as an alternative to the single-primary MariaDB Replication.

MariaDB Enterprise Cluster combines MariaDB Enterprise Server with an enhanced version of Galera Cluster.

MariaDB Galera Cluster combines MariaDB Community Server with Galera Cluster.
