Galera support?

Hi, does it supports Galera Cluster (MariaDB)?

Hi @mehroz1 👋

Yes, Galera Cluster (MariaDB) works with Databasement out of the box. From the tool's perspective, a Galera node looks like a regular MariaDB instance — it connects via the standard MySQL protocol and uses mariadb-dump for backups and standard restore commands.

What works:

• Backups — a logical dump against any single Galera node produces a valid backup, same as a standalone MariaDB server.
• Restores — restoring to one node works normally; Galera's wsrep replication propagates the changes to other nodes automatically.

A couple of tips:

• Point Databasement at one specific node rather than a load balancer, to avoid switching nodes mid-dump.
• Be aware that large restores will generate replication traffic across the cluster.

Hope that helps!
