Дата публикации: 11-06-2026 07:34:00

Somehow this news slipped past me: MariaDB has shortened the support period for the long-term releases of the MariaDB Community Server from 5 to 3 years. OK, I guess that’s not really surprising — I’ve been offline for a good month…

I am curious to see how all the distributions will handle this. They have significantly longer support periods, after all.
And what about the competitors — the other databases?
