mariadb-connector-r2dbc-install

Installing and configuring MariaDB Connector/R2DBC, the reactive non-blocking driver for MariaDB — the Maven coordinates org.mariadb:r2dbc-mariadb, the fact that it implements R2DBC rather than JDBC so connections come from ConnectionFactories.get() with an r2dbc:mariadb:// URL and never from DriverManager; that connection pooling is a separate io.r2dbc:r2dbc-pool dependency rather than a built-in; that sslMode defaults to disabled so TLS must be requested explicitly and then tuned with serverSslCert or a truststore; and the parameter names that differ from the JDBC driver, notably username and socket. Use when adding the driver to a build, wiring a ConnectionFactory, or configuring pooling and TLS.
