MariaDB Community Edition is available in two self-service topologies:
A standalone instance (with a GTID replica on request)
A Galera cluster based on 3 active/active instances
For more information on MariaDB architecture :
MariaDB instances are accessible on port 3306 by default.
MariaDB is available in the following cegedim.cloud data centers:
EB4 (Boulogne-Billancourt, France)
ET1 (Labège, France)
In some cases, when a third node is deployed (Galera cluster), nearby secondary data centers may also be used to ensure maximum resilience:
EB5 (Magny-les-Hameaux, France)
ET2 (Balma, France)
The MariaDB Platform as a Service is hosted on the Linux Debian 10 distribution.
Minimum system requirements are 2 CPUs and 4GB RAM.
Storage can be configured during provisioning and subsequently increased on request.
This is a single instance deployed in a single data center.
Two MariaDB instances are deployed in the same data center: the main node with a read-only replica.
Only deployed on request!
A MariaDB Galera cluster is a virtually synchronous multi-primary cluster for MariaDB. A cluster based on 3 active/active instances can be deployed in any cegedim.cloud data center.
The supported version is the latest LTS (long term support) currently available. For more information, please consult MariaDB versions.
This section is to list which feature / capabilities are available to customer, and how to request / perform them :
Some default MariaDB parameters configured by cegedim.cloud :
Backup policy for MariaDB is configured like so :
Full backup every weekend (online)
Differential backup every day (online)
Binlog backup every two hours
Default backup retention for the full backups and dependent backups is two weeks.
MariaDB's authentication is internal user based.
An administration user is provided to the customer when the provisioning is over.
The password of this user is not stored nor saved by cegedim.cloud. Please be sure to save it in your own vault.
As part of our Managed Databases offer, MariaDB is specifically monitored on top of the underlying system to ensure service uptime and performances.
The following key MariaDB indicators are monitored and tracked :
Number of aborted client connections
Number of failed server connection attempts
Number of refused connections due to internal server errors
Maximum number of simultaneous connections opened
Self Service
Customer can perform action autonomously.
On Request
Customer can request for the action to be done to cegedim.cloud support team.
SSH access
SSH access is disabled and reserved to cegedim.cloud administrators.
Change configuration file
On request via ticket. Review by the cegedim.cloud team.

To request the addition of a MariaDB read-only replica, you need to create a request ticket via ITCare.
In the Support section of the left-hand side menu, click on the Make a request button. In the Database category, then MariaDB, select and fill in the form: Setting up passive MariaDB replication.
A support ticket will be created upon submission.
Managed MariaDB
MariaDB is an open-source database management system created by the original developers of MySQL. MariaDB uses tables to store data in an organized way, and it is possible to interact with the database using SQL queries.
It supports concepts such as primary keys, indexes and relationships between tables. MariaDB is widely used for data storage and management in a variety of applications, from websites to enterprise systems. It is a popular choice due to its reliability, performance and open-source nature.
MariaDB is deployed on-premise in cegedim.cloud's data centers. The long term support (LTS) can be deployed in self-service using ITCare
The same level of service as the Compute offer is guaranteed : deployment of instances, maintenance in operational condition, flexibility, security and monitoring are thus ensured by our experts.
Two topologies are available in self-service :
Standalone (replica can be added on request)
Galera cluster (3 nodes)
Galera cluster is production ready with at least 3 nodes spread over all Availability Zones of a target Area.
Sizing can be configured according to your needs.
For more information, please visit .
Billing is processed monthly and based on the number of instances plus supplementary costs for storage, backup, 24x7 monitoring.
Cost estimation for a MariaDB instance is available via your Service Delivery Manager.
