Percona & The Open Source Community
… They exemplify the best of open source-based companies, with deep engineering knowledge and a consistent high-quality approach to business. I look forward to another 15 years, as open source continues to grow, and I am sure Percona along with it.
Bruce Momjian Vice President, Postgres Evangelist at
EnterpriseDB Congratulations to Percona and Peter Zaitsev on the first 15 years! A notable anniversary for any company. Percona is a good role model, not just for releasing its tools (e.g., Percona Toolkit, PMM) under open source licenses, but also for making them database server agnostic…
Database performance never goes out of style, and Percona has been doing it for 15 years, making open source databases stronger and faster. Congratulations!
