Is there any way I can install only MySQL-server? Or that MariaDB thing must be installed? Thanks in advance.
In fact MariaDB is fully compatible with MySQL since it was (and still is) intended to be a perfect replacement for MySQL. A standard MySQL installation comes bundled with a couple of useful tools, such as mysqldump, which is helpful for backups. It can be used with both MySQL and MariaDB.
Within the same base version (for example MySQL 5.5 -> MariaDB 5.5, MySQL 5.6 -> MariaDB 10.0 and MySQL 5.7 -> MariaDB 10.2) you can in most cases just uninstall MySQL and install MariaDB and you are good to go. There is no need to dump and restore databases.
MariaDB and MySQL packages conflict because they provide similar files. So, you can only install one of them, either MariaDB or MySQL, but not both. In addition you can also install MySQL commmunity edition (8.0 or 5.7) from the repository maintained by Oracle/MySQL itself.
After the acquisition of MySQL by Oracle, some issues happened with the usage of the database and hence MariaDB was developed. 2. MariaDB : MariaDB is an open source relational database management system (RDBMS) that is a compatible drop-in replacement for the widely used MySQL database technology.
you go to http://repo.mysql.com/ and choose a version
I have debian 9 so I choose
wget http://repo.mysql.com/mysql-apt-config_0.8.15-1_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i mysql-apt-config_0.8.15-1_all.deb
Then you will be asked what you desire to install ... you say mysql Server
then you go as usual ...
sudo apt update
sudo apt install mysql-server
and the rest you know probably ...
