"Excellent product for Mysql administration" Edited 2021-08-18
Pros: 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.

Overall: 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.
