Deploy MariaDB Cloud in Your Microsoft Azure Account. Retain Control.
March 11, 2026 at 9 AM PST and 5:00 PM GMT PST
A Live Webinar on MariaDB Cloud’s latest release: BYOA (Bring Your Own Account) with Product Manager Naman Shah.
Cloud databases deliver operational simplicity, but traditional models can create a disconnect from your essential security, governance, and cost controls. What if you could keep the operational ease of a fully managed service without losing control over your infrastructure?
In this live webinar, Naman Shah will introduce MariaDB Cloud BYOA for Azure. This Technical Preview release enables a new deployment model where the managed database runs inside your Azure subscription, governed by your policies and billed to your commitments, while MariaDB Cloud handles the operations.
Why BYOA
Maintain Governance & Security: Your database runs in your Azure tenant. Enforce your existing IAM, networking, and data residency policies. Your data never leaves your environment.
Optimize Cloud Spend: All infrastructure costs are billed directly to your Azure account. Use your existing commitments and negotiated discounts.
Accelerate AI Development: See how built-in high-performance vector search and developer agents simplify building intelligent applications on a controlled foundation.
Prepare for Multi-Cloud: Get a roadmap update on upcoming BYOA support for AWS and Google Cloud Platform.
What You Will Learn:
How the BYOA model works: your account owns the data plane, MariaDB Cloud manages the database lifecycle.
The practical steps to deploy the Tech Preview in your Azure subscription, including account prerequisites.
How this deployment maintains operational consistency—gaining managed service benefits without losing infrastructure visibility.
The development timeline for expanding BYOA to AWS and GCP.
