6 Commits • 5 Features
Sep 1, 2025September 2025: Focused documentation improvements in mariadb-docs delivering business value through navigable release notes, performance- and security-oriented guides, and clearer DDL behavior. Navigation fixes addressed release notes links and policy pages; new pages cover Linux kernel parameter tuning for ColumnStore, data-at-rest encryption/decryption procedures, long-running backup workloads (--ftwrl-wait-timeout), and CREATE TABLE behavior. Impact: smoother onboarding, reduced support queries, and faster, safer deployments. Skills demonstrated include documentation governance, structured technical writing, kernel-tuning concepts, encryption workflows, and backup tooling.
