The Ultimate Guide to High Availability with MariaDB

Google Summer of Code 2017

You are viewing an old version of this article. View the current version here.

We would like to participate in the Google Summer of Code 2017 (as we have participated in previous years). The MariaDB Foundation believes we are making a better database that remains application compatible with MySQL. We also work on making LGPL connectors (currently C, ODBC, Java) and on MariaDB Galera Cluster, which allows you to scale your reads & writes. Lately, we also have MariaDB ColumnsStore, which is a columnar storage engine, designed to process petabytes of data with real-time response to analytical queries.

NO PAD collations

Currently MariaDB ignores trailing spaces when comparing values of the CHAR, VARCHAR, TEXT data types. In some cases it would be nice to take trailing spaces into account. This task will introduce a set of new collations that will make this possible.
