MariaDB on CodeRed Cloud#

Note

As of June 2023, MariaDB is being removed from CodeRed Cloud and replaced with MySQL. Websites with MariaDB 10.2 and 10.3 databases will be automatically migrated to MySQL 8.0.

As part of this migration, the new default collation is utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci. It is recommended to convert your existing tables to this new collation. For sites that do not specify a collation in their database conneciton settings (i.e. WordPress, and Django sites using mysqlclient without the collation option), CodeRed Support will automatically convert your tables when your database is migrated to MySQL.

This page provides technical platform information about MariaDB databases hosted on CodeRed Cloud.

For help connecting to your MariaDB database see Connect to Your CodeRed Database.

Versions#

MariaDB uses the X.Y.Z naming scheme. X is the major version, Y is the minor version, and Z is the maintenance patch version.

MariaDB versions available on CodeRed Cloud: 10.3, 10.2

MariaDB major and minor versions are set at the time of website creation. Maintenance patches are applied automatically by CodeRed. The version of your database can be viewed in the CodeRed dashboard for your website under the Database tab.

To change the major or minor version used by your website, contact CodeRed support.
