MariaDB (Plc) CEO Rohit De Souza says he wants closer-knit collaboration with the foundation behind the open source database project.

He cites the corporation’s recent acquisition by a private equity firm as to why it should now be able to get on a firmer footing.

The initial MariaDB project launched in 2009 as a response to MySQL falling under certain corporate ownership.

MariaDB Foundation CEO Kaj Arnö says there are now “shared goals centered around cooperation and openness”.

MariaDB CEO De Souza says he's more optimistic about the relationship between MariaDB Foundation and MariaDB the Company than he has ever been since taking the CEO position in 2019 .

MariaDB Plc claims around 200 employees, 40% of whom reside in North America , while nearly half are located in Europe .
