This article is about choice of database models and implementations.

Known types of databases

w:Relational database or w:RDBMS
w:Triplestore may be native implementation or on top of RDBMS
w:Graph databases would intuitively appear more advanced than using RDF-triplet composed semantic networks.

On default MediaWikis run on w:MySQL or the better and more ethical binary compatible drop-in replacement w:MariaDB. A recent fork by the original MySQL founders from MySQL. The Netherlands server serving the Consumium free social media run on MariaDB 10.

Postgresql is also in use working as data storage for w:GNU MediaGoblin at https://media.consumium.org
