Full disclosure, I work as a developer rather than on the sysadmin/devops side.<br>
<br>
I've been using MariaDB as a drop in replacement for MySQL server for local development instances for years, and it's been completely fine - I have had zero issues with it, and specifically zero issues resulting from differences between MariaDB and MySQL in
particular.<br>

We have been using MySQL for our ArchivesSpace for several years, but our institution wants to shift us to MariaDB. The university no longer supports MySQL - not just for us, but campus wide.
<br>
<br>
Will ArchivesSpace work with MariaDB? If so, are there any problems or issues I should anticipate with the transfer from MySQL? And are there any problems or issues I should anticipate running ArchivesSpace in the future?<br>
<br>
I should add that this is not a hostile takeover (i.e., I am not being forced to make a change). The IT folks are being very helpful, so any information that helps them to help our archives will be appreciated.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Dave<br>
