MariaDB is an enhanced, drop-in replacement for MySQL and is available under the terms of the GPL v2 license. It’s developed by the MariaDB community with the MariaDB Foundation as its main steward.
It has been created by MySQL creator Michael Widenius, when he sold MySQL to Sum microsystems.
MariaDB is opensource, a foundation has been created to support MariaDB.

Another advantage would be according to this benchmark the speed gain.
Let’s have a look at the Slim documentation and try it.
