The challenge

Verendus was having multiple problems with their previous server host, resulting in frequent table and disk corruption. This was extremely stressful, causing numerous periods of downtime when they had no choice but to schedule production stops to repair the database and ensure all data was intact.

The solution

Percona was a reliable partner throughout this challenging period, significantly reducing Verendus’ stress levels by providing constant, professional support in critical situations. Percona’s detailed work providing in-depth analysis of logs and configurations enabled Verendus to optimize their database, allowing it to perform far more effectively. The adoption of Percona XtraBackup also ensured that Verendus could feel confident in their backups, and the verification of those backups.

How Percona Made a Difference

Percona’s assistance enabled Verendus to solve their database corruption issues and ensure their host server was secure, allowing them to focus on a migration to Google Cloud.
