What about support at the driver level for Java and .NET applications or heterogeneous database schemas?
It is not clear how "XA START" maps into each server.
Am I supposed to manually mess around with text ids?
Nice to see stored procedures are supported, but they seem pretty basic in language features when compared with PL/SQL or Transact SQL.

I guess MariaDB JDBC driver already has two phase commit logic, because MySql has it for decade. It is enough for distributed transactions in "heterogeneous database schemas".
How well does Maria DB handle distributed transactions across the database cluster?
Or how does Maria DB handle object based schemas?
What about the stored procedures language features versus PL/SQL?
Don't get me wrong, it is great that Maria DB is getting lots of money so that their developers can improve it, but there are lots of database features that keep us on Oracle and SQL Server, specially when we only care about business value and not FOSS religious discussions.
