Question
Can't install mysql on CentOS 7
- Posted July 12, 2014
It just says no package mysql-server available. I’ve tried every tutorial, egel and whatnot installed. It’s not on the list of things that are not supposed to be installed. Is there a way to force install it from somewhere that’s not from the fastest mirrors so I can see if the mirrors just aren’t working?
edit - I can install mysql-devel, just not anything else.

Don’t forget to set it up as a service. This is from the tutorial @Omar posted.
sudo yum -y install mariadb-server mariadb
sudo systemctl start mariadb.service
sudo systemctl enable mariadb.service
Once you do that, you should be able to run the mysql command and it will just let you in.
[vagrant@default ~]$ mysql

We use Centos 7 and have found Percona to meet our needs quite well whether we need a single server or a cluster.

Can I migrate MySQL database to Maria DB?
Is it transparent?
Right. CentOS 7 (as well as RHEL 7) does not include MySQL. It instead ships MariaDB which a drop in replacement. You can install it with:
sudo yum install mariadb-server mariadb
