MariaDB and MySQL are sometimes misnamed and considered the same. How does ClusterControl deal with each?
Each deployment and processing of each technology is specific to each. Documentation may refer to both where there are common areas but are specific where it applies, e.g., backup tooling.
If I have MySQL but want to deploy MariaDB and use things like MaxScale, XtraDB, OQGRAPH, and SPIDER, do you cover that migration?
ClusterControl will deploy the MariaDB version you desire, from 10.3 to 10.11, so, as with any database migration, you will only have to import the data into the deployed MariaDB.
Can I import an existing MariaDB environment and then create a Spider sharding from that?
Yes, just take a look at how that’s done here.
