Ecosystems

Joined MySQL in 2002 as staff member #46

Why Start Percona?
Perhaps I’m Entrepreneur at my heart
MySQL was growing big and “structured”
Changing focus from changing the world to having successful “exit”
Saw Opportunity to do Services Better
Solutions which are first and foremost best for customer

that don’t have a good Open Source solution
Launched Subscription-based Support
Services
Launched Managed Services offering
Expanded to provide services for MongoDB
