I'm trying to set up replication from multiple clients servers with the same databases(MariaDB 10.3 on centos 7.0, same tables, different content) to a single host server. What are the best practices to do this and what's the easiest way to accomplish that? Should I have multiple MySQL instances on my host machine? or maybe if I have a database called
employees
on the clients, I should save 3 databases named
${hostname}employees
on my host machine?
Thanks for helping!

You can use replication-rewrite-db=old_name->new_name
to write changes to a certain database to a different database on the slave side:

This is also possible on a per-mater basis with multi source replication:

See also this detailed description of such a multi source rewrite setup:
