Hi @Rafael Veloso,

Thanks for the question and using MS Q&A platform.

As part of the retirement, Azure is no longer supporting in creating Azure Database for MariaDB from the Azure portal beginning January 19, 2024.

Azure CLI is supported until March 19, 2024.

You need to raise Azure Support ticket if you still need to create MariaDB instances to address business continuity requirements.
