Percona Server Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Senior Infrastructure Analyst at Embratur4.5I use Percona Server for electronic information systems because it's stable, scalable, and easy to configure. It ensures database consistency, reduces downtime, and improves backups, though I'd like more advanced query fields. I've used it for over eight years.
Senior Infrastructure Analyst at Embratur4.5I use Percona Server XtraDB Cluster for database migration and replication, valuing its excellent replication, consistency, and performance. It ensures stability and easy scalability. While more material for optimization would be beneficial, I find it a great tool and rate it highly.
Database Administrator at Systems Limited4.0I'm conducting a POC to compare Percona Server with MySQL's community version. Percona is easy to use, scalable, and backed by a helpful community, but I wish it had flashback functionality and more accessible training resources.
Systems Engineer at a comms service provider with 51-200 employees3.5I find Percona Server's replication and High Availability valuable. It's free with high ROI and straightforward to set up. My main complaint is its failure to reclaim disk space after row deletions.
