Tradeoffs Appian's cloud native Database (MariaDB) x Customer Database

Certified Senior Developer

Hi team, 

I'm planning the architecture of a new Appian Project for a new customer. The customer needs to know what are the tradeoffs of choosing the native appian cloud database (MariaDB) to store business data vs the own customer's database.

I know that exists some information about it in the documentation but I would like to know more about your practical experiences on it.

Thanks.

    Hello  
    The choice between Appian's built-in MariaDB and your client's own database depends entirely on their security requirements and project needs.

    Appian's database offers a user-friendly, secure option ideal for simpler projects where a quick setup is crucial. However, if the project involves highly sensitive data or the client has a robust existing database infrastructure, using their own database provides greater control and flexibility for complex needs.

    Ultimately, the best solution depends on your client's specific priorities.
