[Maria-developers] Using MariaDB SQL for other storage engine
![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/a192c78917bb0ae8d05fb22644c657ae.jpg?s=120&d=mm&r=g)
Hello, I am a database guy and want to plug mariaDB sql engine for other storage engine. If I want to plugin a storage engine with mariadb to use mariadb's SQL should i use handler interface in the storage/examples directory. I am not sure how to start with this interface implementation for MariaDB. Any help or docs or weblink on this would be helpful. Thanks and Regards, Amith

Hi Amith the O'Reilly book MySQL Internals has a chapter on developing storage engines, e.g. Chapter 7. The Storage Engine Interface. This book is geared to MySQL not MariaDB but the concepts are much the same. There is also https://dev.mysql.com/doc/internals/en/custom-engine.html, again specific to MySQL Beyond that I had to learn by reading the code... cheers, Andrew On 24/02/14 22:49, Amith Nagarajappa wrote:
