RHEL 7 (and as the result CentOS 7 & forks) include MariaDB instead of MySQL. https://mariadb.com/blog/rhel7-trans...adb-first-look

So how can i install mysql (and NOT mariadb)? I have a mysql server and need to connect to the server from a client

you can use your mysql databases with mariadb and you can connect from mysql clients to mariadb . mariadb basically will provide better performance compared to mysql and with your own mysql databases . Highest Regards Mohammed H
