MariaDB MySQL-compatible relational database on hardened AlmaLinux 9 — production-ready fast.
MariaDB on AlmaLinux 9
A production-ready MariaDB database server on AlmaLinux 9, built and hardened for the Azure Marketplace. MariaDB is installed from the AlmaLinux AppStream and enabled as a service; the data directory is bootstrapped and a unique root password is set on first boot.
Who this is for: Developers, database administrators, and web teams who want a self-managed MariaDB (MySQL-compatible) database on Azure on an enterprise RHEL-compatible base.
Target industries: Software and SaaS, e-commerce, media, hosting, and public sector — any organization running MySQL-compatible workloads in its own Azure subscription.
Value proposition: Standing up a secure MariaDB on an enterprise Linux base means installing it, bootstrapping the data directory, and hardening the root account. This image does that for you:
- MariaDB server from the AlmaLinux 9 AppStream — installed and enabled as a managed systemd service under the GPL-2.0 license
- Hardened on first boot — a unique root password is generated and stored root-readable, and anonymous users and the test database are removed, mirroring mysql_secure_installation
- Monthly patched & hardened — rebuilt each month from the upstream base with the latest OS security updates; hardened to Microsoft's Azure Marketplace certification standards before any version is published
- Ready to run — the service is installed, enabled, and configured to start on boot, so the VM is productive minutes after deployment instead of after a manual install
- Audit trail per release — build and certification evidence retained for every published image version, available for compliance audits and change-management documentation
Plans available:
- MariaDB on AlmaLinux 9 — Gen2 — Trusted Launch-capable Gen2 VM image; free image (standard Azure compute and storage rates apply). MariaDB is open-source software under the GPL-2.0 license.
Supported software and integrations: Any MySQL or MariaDB client or driver, phpMyAdmin; Azure Monitor, Azure Backup, Azure Virtual Network, Azure Key Vault.
Recommended deployment: Standard_D4as_v5 or larger; Premium SSD for the data volume. Restrict port 3306 to your virtual network; schedule backups of /var/lib/mysql.
