Whiteboard

I was able to get it to work by tweaking the mysql driver as described here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/trove/+bug/1371750

As for me, this bug report is invalid. With the respect to https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Trove/DatastoreCompatibilityMatrix - Trove doesn't support MariaDB.

After certain considerations and researching i faced with next things:
1. MariaDB is mysql-like datastore from Trove perspective.
2. MariaDB is not like a MySQL in general.
3. With taking into account #1 and #2 i must say that Trove should have separate manager for MariaDB.

From testing perspective:

MariaDB can be easily deployed over Fedora/RHEL/CentOS/OEL/OEVM but not the Ubuntu (any of releases, even taking into account huge amount of hacks while deployment).

For those developers who are on the track of MariaDB support might write appropriate spec for adding separate manager(as Auston said) for MariaDB, and nothing else.
