Hi there,

Per the upcoming EOL for MariaDB 10.3, we’ll be upgrading all machines from 10.3.39 to 10.6.13.

This pushes out support/security coverage from mid-2023 to mid-2026, improves performance and resolves some issues with InnoDB amongst other things, and follows best practices.

10.6: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/changes-improvements-in-mariadb-106/
https://mariadb.com/kb/en/changes-and-improvements-in-mariadb-10-5/
https://mariadb.com/kb/en/changes-and-improvements-in-mariadb-10-4/

Following cPanel’s recent change to only using long-term stable versions (from 10.6 onwards), we expect the next major update to be 10.11.x which pushes support to 2028.

Please let us know if you’ve any questions or concerns.

Cheers,
