I have now been running the blog site with MariaDB for a week, so what have I noticed? The server is no longer running out of disk space due to frequently created large log files in the database volume (previously mySQL, but now MariaDB). Was there an underlying problem in mySQL? #server #mysql #mariadb #opensource #migration

Just explored Ignored Indexes in #MariaDB. Neat way to mark indexes so the optimizer doesn’t use them while still keeping them maintained. Great to check if an index is worth dropping without the risk of re-creating it later. How do you decide when an index is no longer useful?
MariaDB ignored indexes in action.
