Overview of this book

This book will take you through all the nitty-gritty parts of MariaDB, right from the creation of your database all the way to using MariaDB’s advanced features. At the very beginning, we show you the basics, that is, how to install MariaDB. Then, we walk you through the databases and tables of MariaDB, and introduce SQL in MariaDB. You will learn about all the features that have been added in MariaDB but are absent in MySQL. Moving on, you’ll learn to import and export data, views, virtual columns, and dynamic columns in MariaDB. Then, you’ll get to grips with full-text searches and queries in MariaDb. You’ll also be familiarized with the CONNECT storage engine. At the end of the book, you’ll be introduced to the community of MariaDB.

Chapter 4. Importing and Exporting Data

In the previous chapters, we learned how to install MariaDB, create our databases and tables, and how to work with our data. Even if we're yet to learn many of the interesting features of MariaDB, we are now ready to use it for our day-to-day work. However, there is still something that we definitely need to know: how to import and export data. We will learn this topic in the present chapter.

In this chapter, we will discuss the following topics:

  • The basics of importing and exporting data
  • Creating and importing CSV files
  • Creating and running a dump file
  • Making the restore of a database faster
