Hi, Has anyone switched to MariaDB for Shared hosting from MySQL 5.6? Are there any major issues that could cause problems? Any real benefits in changing? Should I do it now or wait? :)

  I'm about to do mine, just backing up cpanel accounts and server configuration files. I will post back, once done.

  It worked fine, clients websites wont connect to the databases for like 15 seconds. Then they all came back to life. [mysql restarted successfully.[0m] MariaDB upgrade completed successfully Then run Easy-Apache after.

  Might want to remember the upgrade to MariaDB will fail if you have CloudLinux MySQL govenor installed.

  Will first do it in test environment a few times then see how it works. No issues though experienced? and is performance far better?

  No issues. Performance wise, ram reduced slightly but will monitor it over time.
