It adds support for multiple MariaDB Server versions on MariaDB Cloud Serverless. **Release Date:** 30 September 2026 Release 2026.09.30 is a GA release. ## New Features ### Multiple MariaDB Server versions on Serverless A Serverless database can now be created on any MariaDB Server version that MariaDB Cloud offers for provisioned single-node databases. Previously, a Serverless database could only be created on the current default version. Choose the version with the **MariaDB Version** picker when you launch the database. Availability and behavior: * **Default version** — MariaDB Cloud keeps pre-provisioned instances on the default version, so a database created on it is ready in milliseconds. The picker preselects this version. * **Any other available version** — the database is built on demand when you create it, so it takes longer to launch than the instant start. In every other respect it is a Serverless database: it scales to zero when idle, resumes on connection, and is billed by MCU-hour. * Selecting a version other than the default requires a paid plan. On a trial with no payment method on file — including the Free Developer Tier database — the version picker offers the default version only. * MariaDB Community Server versions are available on all service tiers. MariaDB Enterprise Server versions are available on the **Power** and **PowerPlus** tiers, in addition to the default Community version.
