JawsDB Maria

MariaDB, the open source drop-in replacement for MySQL now available on Heroku Starting at ~$0/hour.

Improving on the Best

MariaDB is a completely open source drop-in replacement for MySQL from one of the original developers of MySQL. Not only does MySQL code run ‘swimmingly’ on MariaDB, but Maria also adds several enhancements and features to the database you already know and love.

No Need to Share

For large apps and those expecting to grow, JawsDB Maria offers plans that deliver servers with a single tenant. You. Administer your box as you see fit and use your complete control to serve your users on your terms. The permissions are yours alone to set, and the resources are yours alone to use.

Scale with Confidence

No matter the size of your application, JawsDB Maria offers servers to deliver the performance you need. From our entry plans to our top tiers, you can be confident that we will be able to support your growth, every step of the way.

Peace of Mind Backups

You can rest easy knowing that, in addition to any database backups you personally perform on your JawsDB Maria database, we also take a nightly backup which our team can use to restore your database to an earlier point in time. Your data is important to you and your users, and that makes it important to us.

Replicated Data for High Availability

Because availability of your application is important, JawsDB Maria offers plans that support automatic failover should an issue arise with your server. Data on these plans is replicated to servers in different geographic regions which will pick up right where your main server left off during any unexpected outage. With a monthly uptime of at least 99.95%, these plans provide power to your application along with the assurance that it will be there for your users.

Information to Chew On

All users have access to Databites through their Heroku Dashboard. Create, edit, and save reusable queries against your provisioned server. Databites are a custom, zero-hassle reporting solution for your database right out of the box!
