Is Aria Used for Your Temporary Tables? (MariaDB)

In this MariaDB server tutorial we’ll walk you through the mariadb server variable called “aria_used_for_temp_tables”

This MariaDB server variable deals with temporary tables – temporary sql tabels are tables that are often created once we run an important sql operation.
Temporary tables are a part of life of every DBA.
MariaDB Server provides us with an option to indicate whether to use a crash-safe version of MyISAM (Aria) for those tables.
To make use of this option, use “aria_used_for_temp_tables.”
This variable has two available options: “ON” & “OFF.”
The default value is ON. If this parameter is set to OFF, MariaDB server will use MyISAM for temporary tables.
No matter what this variable is set to, the MariaDB server will use the MEMORY storage engine where appropriate.
