MariaDB in Debian and Ubuntu: The next million users
MariaDB is poised to become the default database package for Debian and Ubuntu distributions, which account for 60% of web servers. With over 300 million servers that could run the simple command 'apt-get install mariadb-server', MariaDB has the potential to gain many new users by being the default package. MySQL may be removed entirely from the next Debian release, with a Debian security team member confirming MariaDB 10.0 was chosen as the single database version for the upcoming Debian "stretch" release. MariaDB has fewer open bugs than MySQL in the Debian bug tracking system, further strengthening the case for it to become the primary database package.
