TokuDB Overview

TokuDB has been deprecated by its upstream maintainer. It is disabled from MariaDB 10.5 and has been been removed in MariaDB 10.6 - MDEV-19780. We recommend MyRocks as a long-term migration path.

The TokuDB storage engine is for use in high-performance and write-intensive environments, offering increased compression and better performance.

It is available in an open-source version, included with 64-bit MariaDB (but not enabled by default), and an Enterprise edition available from Tokutek.

Official TokuDB Product Specs and Manuals are available on the Percona website. See:

• TokuDB Documentation

The version of TokuDB in your local MariaDB is available by querying the tokudb_version status variable. For example:

SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'tokudb_version';

In the MariaDB binary tarballs, only the ones labeled "glibc_214" have TokuDB.
