Can any one tell me what is the difference between Mariadb and Mysql? which one should I use to have fast queries for my website?

MariaDB is the new and improved version of MySQL. It's faster, more extensive, and it's truly open source (transparent operations too).

Always go with MariaDB.

You can read more about it at their official website

Depending on the design of the Database, we have actually seen some performance gains out of MySQL 5.7 over MariaDB. Also there are several commercial scripts that wont work or that have issues with MariaDB. So you should do your research on which is the better option for you.
