What's the compatibility level for InnoDB and what steps are needed to get the DB running in MariaDB? We are concerned about this switch proposal as introducing a new DB engine into our infrastructure won't be straight-forward. The work on getting a persistency layer providing db-agnostic code is the path we should follow. Elliot, if there's anything we can help with, just let us know!
