    best features of Percona Server for MySQL is its scalability

    Date: Feb 16 2024

    Summary: Another feature that I appreciate about Percona Server for MySQL is its security. It comes with built-in data encryption and advanced security measures that ensure the safety of our sensitive data. This is particularly important for enterprises that deal with customer data and need to comply with strict data privacy regulations.
