It's very straight forward to install MariaDB with DirectAdmin.

RPM Installation

There is a quick and easy guide on how to install MariaDB via RPMs here, https://kb.askmonty.org/en/installing-mariadb-with-the-rpm-tool/ .

Necessary Edits

We do not want DirectAdmin's custombuild to remove our MariaDB installation whenever an update is performed. To rectify this, we are going to disable the MySQL installation.

Now open up /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild/options.conf

You want to change:
mysql_inst=yes
To:
mysql_inst=no
