MariaDB is supported by GeneXus, since it is a MySQL. So any configuration in GeneXus is the same as MySQL and all GeneXus / MySQL considerations apply.
"For all practical purposes, MariaDB is a binary drop in replacement of the same MySQL version (for example MySQL 5.1 -> MariaDB 5.1, MariaDB 5.2 & MariaDB 5.3 are compatible. MySQL 5.5 is compatible with MariaDB 5.5 and also in practice with MariaDB 10.0)." Source: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/mariadb-vs-mysql-compatibility/
So you may use the same drivers than the ones for MySQL. Recommended reading: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/mariadb-vs-mysql-compatibility/
