I am also caring on this problem. I am using Mysql for databases, how to change them into mariadb, is there an option to switch it to mariadb for any hosting control panels?

You don`t need to switch the base. You can contact hosting provider or ask your admin to reinstall database. If i remember right this option exists in cPanel.
