Lately more people ask me for comparisons between Percona Server & MariaDB. There isn’t a definitive blow-by-blow feature comparison yet, but it’ll come soon.<\/p>\n
All that said, its great to see new features from MariaDB<\/a> make it into Percona Server<\/a>. The features that I’ve managed to track: group commit for the binary log, threadpool and atomic write support for Fusion-io devices.<\/p>\n It started with the group commit for the binary log<\/a> feature in Percona Server 5.5.18-23.0<\/a>\u00a0(docs<\/a>). 19 December 2011 is a long time ago, and before we made MariaDB 5.3 or 5.5 GA as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n The next feature that made it into Percona Server was the threadpool<\/a>\u00a0(different implementation compared to MySQL Enterprise). We had a threadpool since MariaDB 5.1<\/a>\u00a0(libevent based), but improved it drastically in MariaDB 5.5<\/a>. It made its debut in Percona Server 5.5.29-30.0 (26 February 2013 – so about 10 months after we included the feature), but was further improved in 5.5.30-30.2 to include priority connection scheduling<\/a>.<\/p>\n The latest feature to be included? Fusion-io DirectFS atomic write support<\/a>. It made its debut in Percona Server 5.5.31-30.3<\/a>\u00a0(24 May 2013 – so about a month since we included the feature). I like this because Laurynas Biveinis provided some feedback<\/a> on the maria-developers list<\/a>.<\/p>\n Great opensource at work here. I look forward to more features making their way back & forth between the branches.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Lately more people ask me for comparisons between Percona Server & MariaDB.
