Percona Server for MySQL vs. Tibero

Percona Server for MySQL covers 100% of our requirements in terms of our OLTP traffic and provides the High Availability levels required through a typical primary and 2 replica's using semi-synchronous replication. We're able to scale our writes using sharding, but a true distributed database would be a great option on top of this. In terms of OLAP traffic, we leverage columns stores available, but Percona Server fairs well

I cannot imagine where Tibero will be less appropriate. For anyone looking for a reliable RDBM software, I suggest reviewing Tibero's data sheet for more details of its features and decide for yourself, if this software would work best for your organization.

• Faster than other server solutions
• Installation and configuration process is easy from the user's standpoint
• Easy to learn and good support

Incentivized

• Robustness
• Feature set
• Security
• Cost

• Better documentation
• A better UI

• Working with Tibero for the last 5 years, I haven't noticed any issues so far.

It is easy to install and use. Using it along with Percona Monitoring and Management makes it even easier to use.

We are using opensource so we have not used customer support.

Performance and stability sets Percona Server for MySQL apart from the rest. Percona embraces the upstream version and contributes towards the upstream version making MySQL stronger on two fronts and thus having a much larger community. Many quality contributions have been made by Percona into the base code. Percona provides great tools to support Percona Server for MySQL and this makes the monitoring and management easier

As for features it's more or less the same with lower licensing fees, if you are running on either of the bigger DB providers and you want to port over your data they can do it for you. We chose it after reviewing about 10 different DB providers but didn't want to go with open source.

• At the performance level, it maintains and even improves other open-source databases such as MariaDB or some commercial ones such as Oracle.
• If we compare it with MySQL, we could have up to 50% improvement in performance.
• For some small companies or startups, the price of the complete solution and the support can be a bit high.

Incentivized

• Because Tibero's licensing and support fees are half of Oracle's, we were able to allocate the extra budget to other departments that were in greater need for those funds.
