    My experience with Percona Server

    Date: Aug 27 2021

    Summary: My first experience with Percona was using the set of tools they offered for MySQL servers, after that good experience it was a no brainer to try the Percona Server. Its reliability has been unmatchable during all these years working as system administrator.

    Positive: Percona Server for MySQL is very reliable, has a great set of tools that complement the database server.

    Negative: Percona Server is not a popular choice like other MySQL database servers, and sometimes is difficult to convince companies to use it instead of the others.

    Best sql server

    Date: Aug 16 2021

    Summary: I migrated to Percona Server for MySQL from another database solution, oracle db. Percona Server for MySQL is used for my social media app. And Percona Server for MySQL is used to store, analyze, and work with user information. My aim is fast querying, easy deployment, and good support.

    Positive: It can work on cloud like google cloud, in my app deployment, the queries were run very fast decreasing the runtime and increasing performance, better than oracle one in my opinion.

    Negative: I did not like high pricing, maybe ui and ux improvements can be made and also this needs better docs.

    The amazing advantages exclusive to percona

    Date: Aug 16 2021

    Summary: Keeping in mind the easy scalability and deployment, it deserved this rating.
    Percona is a modern day MySQL/RDBMS solution, where scalability is a pain point, logging is critical, performance is a bottleneck, and you're going to mostly work with the cloud. While it's relatively newer as opposed to more traditional offerings, it is catching up fast in features and support

    Positive: Faster than other server solutions.
    Installation and configuration process is easy from the user's standpoint.
    Easy to learn and good support.
    Excellent performance.
    Fully free and open source.
    Additional tools also available for easy expansion.

    Negative: Better documentation.
    A better UI.
    Regressive performance test: Currently we are relying on MySQL's load testing. Percona should have its load testing result.

    Excellent product for Mysql administration

    Edited: Aug 18 2021

    Summary: Despite being a free and open source software, it has helped us with the implementation of some business software that we previously used with proprietary software, which has helped us to save money, in addition, Percona Server can be fully implemented in the cloud, which has been very useful for the migration of some products.

    Positive: Installation and use are very easy, it is open source and I can know its development internally. The learning curve is short. Percona XtraDB cluster migrations become easy thanks to this software. It is equipped with security functions and can be used through the cloud.
    We were able to achieve better performance with Percona Server, best of all, it is free.

    Negative: I could only add as a disadvantage, the need to expand the documentation, and the support for large-scale applications.
