Senior Infrastructure Analyst at Embratur
Clustered databases have improved consistency and reduced downtime for critical applications
Percona Server offers excellent scalability and easy configuration. The configuration feature is particularly valuable to me because adding a new server requires minimal effort, which streamlines my workflow. Database consistency is the most important feature for me. Percona Server has positively impacted my organization by reducing downtime for applications and improving backup capabilities. Percona Server has improved downtime and backup management by making it easy to switch to another server when necessary, and it includes built-in backup functionality.
