OUR TEAM

 

Percona provides pay-as-you-go consulting to create or scale applications built on the full LAMP stack (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) and other open source technologies. Our customer list is large and diverse, including Fortune 500 firms, popular websites, and small startups.

Percona's full-stack support means you receive all the help you need from one source — whether your problem is database performance bottlenecks, data corruption, networking configuration, or page load and render optimization. Percona's team enjoys a worldwide reputation for expert MySQL knowledge, such as our widely read MySQL Performance blog and our latest book "High Performance MySQL". But we are also fluent in the other key components of enterprise-class applications, such as load balancers, web proxies, caching solutions, and SANs.

Percona's unique a-la-carte pricing model lets you buy the troubleshooting time you need in 15-minute increments, with no lock-in from annual contracts or per-server costs. We can work onsite at your premises, but we ordinarily work remotely via SSH, telephone, email, and instant messaging, which has proven to be the most efficient and economical approach for most customers. Our engineers are distributed worldwide, so there's always someone available to help you 24x7.

Percona's staff can serve as your remote DBA, architecture and design advisors, on-call support team, expert sysadmins, or whatever fits your needs. We also build binaries of an enhanced version of the MySQL server. It includes our advanced patchset for improved performance and manageability. In addition, we provide other unique open-source tools for database users, such as the InnoDB Data Recovery tool.
