MariaDB announced a collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to bring MariaDB SkySQL to the cloud. SkySQL can deploy MariaDB on AWS as a distributed SQL database for scalable transaction processing, as a multi-master cluster for continuous availability, or as multi-node columnar database for data warehousing and analytics. The collaboration enables deeper product integration and a go-to-market relationship that better serves joint MariaDB and AWS customers, and those ready to execute cloud modernization strategies.
