What is the proper way to migrate to MariaDB in Centos 6 (only one PHP :5.6.40 mod_php) ?

Is it good to do a direct upgrade from MySQL 5.7 to MariaDB 10.2 ?
Or is it better to start from mysql 5.7 > MariaDB 10.0 >10.1 > 10.2 ?

Is there anyone who made this migration with Centos 6 ?

The aim is after upgrading to MariaDB 10.2 making backups , reinstall the server with Centos 7 with multiple PHP versions and restore the backup
 
Hello,

You might try at least:

mysql 5.7 > MariaDB 10.1 > 10.2

or even

mysql 5.7 > MariaDB 10.2


The both versions MySQL 5.7 and MariaDB 10.2 are compared by the link: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/server-client-software/mariadb-releases/compatibility-differences/incompatibilities-and-feature-differences-between-mariadb-102-and-mysql-57/ This makes me think you can directly migrate to MariaDB 10.2

Just make sure to create backups first.
 
Hi Alex, thank you for the link
I will try to migrate direct to 10.2 , fingers crossed :)
