Motivation

Besides web servers there are a lot of other server services that can be used on Linux. To much to mention them all but here just a quick overview of what is available and a little dive into mysql/mariadb and samba.

mysql/mariadb

From the free software/open source databases there is postgresql and mysql. Mysql is free software under GPL license but the company that developed it was bought by orcale. As no one trust oracle the code was forked. The free and trusted fork is mariadb which is compatible to mysql but independently developed.
