mariadb is available in ARM and a drop-in replacement for mysql..

Well that was true until mariadb 10.1 <-> mysql 5.6. Now they diverge too much to assume this.
It's a full-on fork, it hasn't been a drop-in replacement for many years now. MySQL and MariaDB each have many features that the other lacks.
