Delivery and Debugging MariaDB Docker Official Images – Daniel Black, MariaDB Foundation
MariaDB Docker Official Images have been community driven for a while and released and maintained by the presenter. The maintenance role has hit some very container specific problems that in general non-container MariaDB doesn’t hit. Environment specific problems will be discussed so that others running especially database loads can avoid some pitfalls. On the plus side, delivering containers via CI/CD to external test systems keeps server development on track. MariaDB test cases cover significant amounts of the code base, however the case that matters to projects using MariaDB are their test cases. As external projects have CI systems, MariaDB provides hot off the maintained branches provides external CI, so MariaDB gets regression bugs before release. Thirdly, when bugs happen, the complexity of database systems and the bugs dependant of the non-shareable data of the users requires need to deliver a quality debugging platform and guidance. Server development and DBA both have very different views of the database especially when debugging and some common tools packed into a container image means that when it happens, the joint journey of bug discovery and rectification can begin from a common starting point. When a fix is ready, a container at the end with the fix for verification, ready in a binary form and not a “can you compile this”.
