• Running MariaDb (mysql fork) clusters version (Galera) using helm in Kubernetes, then initializing DB.

• 2022 - Using the bitnami/Mariadb-galera helm chart to deploy

  • Using startup feature, that looks for db/scripts in "/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/" and loads then on db creation.

  • Only first run, then startup leaves flag .user_scripts_initialized

  • dirs
