Reading your question, it sounds like you're in the early learning phase when 
it comes to databases. Here's what I'd recommend:

1. Get a firm grasp of relational database concepts from a book.
2. SQL is the language that is used to manipulate data (and structure). It 
comes in many flavors and most are compatible (with some syntactic and 
semantic differences) with one another, conforming to various versions of 
ANSI SQL. If you pick a traditional RDBMS like postgresql, you'll pick up a 
good chunk of knowledge that can be applied with a number of other database 
engines. The newer pseudo-RDBMSs are designed to suit a different niche and 
while they may be a bit different, you should be okay with MySQL or even 
SQLite.
3. AFAYAC, MariaDB = MySQL. So, either should be fine.

Is there a particular domain you're interested in? That might help provide a 
more useful answer.
