In the past when 2nd gen EPYC's were launching and beating Intel servers on most benchmarks, I visited a MariaDB conference and when I asked a senior MariaDB engineer, and asked whether he recommended AMD servers.

At that time, he recommended Intel for MariaDB, because MariaDB had much more Intel testing equipment and was optimized for Intel.

I am curious whether that is still the case, and whether MariaDB should be more optimized for Intel?

For example, would AMD EPYC 7763 vs Intel Platinum 8380, would one be recommended over the other for MariaDB? (of course cores, and workload differ, but on a general perspective)

Thank you.
