--- # A tiny MariaDB container The goal of this project is to provide a tiny, high quality and fast starting container for [MariaDB][1]. It is built on the excellent, container-friendly Linux distribution [Alpine Linux][2]. The project intentionally trims edges to achieve arguably the smallest and fastest starting MariaDB. Should you run into problems, feel free to [open an issue][3]. Licensed under [MIT][4]. ## Features - Lightning fast startup: everything is built with performance in mind - Multi-arch: currently supports `amd64`, `arm/v6`, `arm/v7`, `arm64`, `386`, `s390x` and `ppc64le` - Test suite: Each PR is tested to make sure that things stay working - No bin-logging: Most deployments don't use this by default - Supports Docker secrets - Conveniently skip InnoDB: Gain a few seconds on startup - Reduce default settings for InnoDB: production deployments should have their on `my.cnf` - `CTRL+C` shuts down a running container in interactive mode - Bundles a MariaDB client: `docker run -it --entrypoint mariadb jbergstoem/mariadb-alpine` ## Quickstart ```console $ docker run -it --rm -p 3306:3306 \ --name=mariadb \ -e SKIP_INNODB=1 \ jbergstroem/mariadb-alpine ``` ## Next steps - [Usage](docs/usage.md) - [Configuration](docs/configuration.md) - [Tests](docs/tests.md) - [Benchmarks](docs/benchmarks.md) - [Developer documentation](docs/development.md) [1]: https://mariadb.org [2]: https://alpinelinux.org [3]: https://github.com/jbergstroem/mariadb-alpine/issues [4]: ./LICENSE
