We received info about 'Azure Database for MariaDB is scheduled for retirement by September 19, 2025'.

I have some questions about this.

  1. As info, We can just migrate from  Azure Database for MariaDB to Azure Database for MySQL - Flexible Server, not MariaDB - flexible server, right  ?
  2. If need migrate to MySQL- Flexible Server, Do you need choose MySQL version ? Please refer current MariaBD version: 10.2
  3. Please share for us guide to migrate

PS - Based on common issues that we have seen from customers and other sources, we are posting these questions to help the Azure community.

    Greeting!

    The recommended migration path is from Azure Database for MariaDB to Azure Database for MySQL - Flexible Server There isn’t an option to migrate to a MariaDB flexible server within Azure.
