+# MariaDB Blueprint
+
+This blueprint deploys a MariaDB Database using Cloudify.
+
+## prerequisites
+
+You will need a *Cloudify Manager* running in either AWS, Azure, Openstack, or GCP.
+
+If you have not already, set up the [example Cloudify environment](https://github.com/cloudify-examples/cloudify-environment-setup). Installing that blueprint and following all of the configuration instructions will ensure you have all of the prerequisites, including keys, plugins, and secrets.
+
+### Step 1: Install the MariaDB Database
+
+In this step, you will run a *Cloudify CLI* command, which uploads the mariadb blueprint to the manager, creates a deployment, and starts an install workflow.
+
+When it is finished, you will be able to play with the wine store application.
+
+#### For AWS run:
+
+```shell
+$ cfy install \
+    https://github.com/cloudify-examples/mariadb-blueprint/archive/4.1.1.zip \
+    -b mariadb \
+    -n aws-blueprint.yaml
+```
+
+
+#### For Azure run:
+
+```shell
+$ cfy install \
+    https://github.com/cloudify-examples/mariadb-blueprint/archive/4.1.1.zip \
+    -b mariadb \
+    -n azure-blueprint.yaml
+```
+
+
+#### For Openstack run:
+
+```shell
+$ cfy install \
+    https://github.com/cloudify-examples/mariadb-blueprint/archive/4.1.1.zip \
+    -b mariadb \
+    -n openstack-blueprint.yaml
+```
+
+
+You should see something like this when you execute the command:
+
+```shell
+$ cfy install \
+>     https://github.com/cloudify-examples/mariadb-blueprint/archive/4.1.1.zip \
+>     -b mariadb \
+>     -n aws-blueprint.yaml

+```
+
+
+### Step 2: Verify the demo installed and started.
+
+Once the workflow execution is complete, we can view the application endpoint by running: <br>
+
+```shell
+$ cfy deployments outputs mariadb
+```
+
+You should see an output like this:
+
+```shell
+Retrieving outputs for deployment demo...
+ - "ip":
+     Description: Public IP Address
+     Value: 10.239.0.18
+```
+
+You can now connect to the MariaDB on that IP.
