A widely used Ansible role that installs and configures MySQL or MariaDB servers on RHEL/CentOS and Debian/Ubuntu systems. It exposes many variables for managing users, databases, configuration files, and startup behavior.
Use cases
- install mysql server with ansible
- provision mariadb on ubuntu playbook
- configure mysql users and databases via ansible
- automate database server setup on centos
- manage my.cnf configuration with ansible role
When to choose
- you use Ansible and need repeatable MySQL/MariaDB installation on RHEL or Debian-based servers
- you want a battle-tested role with extensive configuration variables
- you need to manage databases, users, and config files declaratively
When to avoid
- you don't use Ansible for infrastructure automation
- you need MySQL on non-Linux platforms
- you require highly customized or clustered database setups beyond the role's scope
