Recently, I found myself needing MariaDB 5.1.60 for Windows for some testing purposes. Therefore, I needed to build it from source. I ended up using what I’d call a “blend” of the commands listed in this “how-to” and the readme file INSTALL-WIN-SOURCE, so I thought I’d post those steps.

1. Download 5.1.60 MariaDB source from here.

2. cd C:\mariadb-5.1

3. win\configure.js

4. cmake .

5. VS: File -> Open -> Solution -> MySql.sln
6. VS: Build -> Build Solution
7. VS: Right-click “PACKAGE” -> Build (in “Solution Explorer” View)

That’s it.

Let’s fire it up:

MariaDB> select version();
+----------------------+
| version()            |
+----------------------+
| 5.1.60-MariaDB-debug |
+----------------------+

MariaDB> show global variables like 'innodb_version';
+----------------+-------------+
| Variable_name  | Value       |
+----------------+-------------+
| innodb_version | 1.0.17-13.0 |
+----------------+-------------+

MariaDB> show engines;

The NoSQL/relational database debate has been going on for quite some time. MariaDB, like MySQL is relational. And if you read these series of blog posts, you’ll realise that if you use MySQL correctly, you can achieve quite a lot.

1. It all starts with Kellan Elliott-McCrea with his introductory post on Using, Abusing and Scaling MySQL at Flickr. Follow the entire series.
2. He starts of the series with Ticket Servers: Distributed Unique Primary Keys on the Cheap. Flickr scales using shards, and ticket servers give unique integers to serve as PKs.
3. Richard Crowley talks about OpenDNS MySQL abuses. Nothing too out of the ordinary, but it shows MySQL getting the job done.
4. Mikhail Panchenko talks about using The Federated engine for his series.

If you’re using the Federated engine, know that MySQL disables FEDERATED by default. In MariaDB 5.1.42, you get FederatedX, which is a maintained fork of FEDERATED, by the author himself! Bugs are fixed, and this is a supported engine, so if you’re using the FEDERATED engine, it might be wise to try out FederatedX.

I’d also like to bring to attention, an interesting essay by Dennis Forbes: Getting Real about NoSQL and the SQL-Isn’t-Scalable Lie. Monty says: “NoSQL is for very smart people who need a very sharp knife. People who are not capable of mastering SQL should not even attempt to try out NoSQL.”
