 ## Introduction
 
-The _mariadb-server_ and it is client _mariadb_ are the open source alternatives to _mysql-server_ and _mysql_, and they share command structure. _mariadb-server_ is running on many web servers, due to the popular [Wordpress CMS](https://wordpress.org/) which requires it. This database, though, has many other uses.

 ### Rocky 9.0 changes
 
-Rocky Linux 9.0 uses `mariadb-server-10.5.13-2` as the default mariadb-server version. As of version 10.4.3, a new plugin is automatically enabled in the server which changes the `mariadb-secure-installation` dialog. That plugin is `unix-socket` authentication. [This article](https://mariadb.com/kb/en/authentication-plugin-unix-socket/) explains the new feature well. Essentially, using unix-socket authentication uses the logged-in user's credentials to access the database. It makes it so that if the root user, for example, logs in and then uses `mysqladmin` to create or delete a database (or any other function) that no password is needed for access. Same works with `mysql`. It also means there is no password to compromise remotely. This depends on the security of the users set up on the server for all of the database protection.

 ## Conclusion
 
-A database server, such as _mariadb-server_, can be used for many purposes. Because of the popularity of the Wordpress CMS, it is often found on web servers. Before you run the database in production, however, it is a good idea to strengthen its security.
