Manage an Azure Database for MariaDB server using the Azure portal

This article shows you how to manage your Azure Database for MariaDB servers. Management tasks include compute and storage scaling, admin password reset, and viewing server details.

Create a server

Visit the quickstart to learn how to create and get started with an Azure Database for MariaDB server.

You can scale from General Purpose to Memory Optimized and vice-versa. Changing to and from the Basic tier after server creation is not supported.

  1. Select your server in the Azure portal. Select Pricing tier, located in the Settings section.

  2. Select General Purpose or Memory Optimized, depending on what you are scaling to.
