Percona Operator for MySQL based on Percona Server for MySQL automates the creation and management of highly available, enterprise-ready MySQL database clusters on Kubernetes.
Percona Operator for MySQL based on Percona Server for MySQL follows our best practices for deployment and configuration of highly-available, fault-tolerant MySQL instances in a Kubernetes-based environment on-premises or in the cloud. It provides the following capabilities:
- Deploy group replication MySQL clusters with MySQL Router
- Deploy asynchronous replication MySQL clusters with Orchestrator and HAProxy
- Expose clusters with regular Kubernetes Services
- Monitor the cluster with Percona Monitoring and Management
- Customize MySQL configuration
- Manage system user passwords
This project is in the tech preview state right now. Don't use it on production.
As of today, we recommend using Percona Operator for MySQL based on Percona XtraDB Cluster, which is production-ready and contains everything you need to quickly and consistently deploy and scale MySQL clusters in a Kubernetes-based environment, on-premises or in the cloud.
Percona Operators are based on the Operator SDK and leverage Kubernetes primitives to follow best CNCF practices.
To learn more about the Operator, check the Percona Operator for MySQL documentation.
