Easy Payment Gateway Relies on Percona Consulting to Optimize Database Performance

UK-based Easy Payment Gateway Ltd., a premier provider of online payment systems, turned to Percona Consulting to conduct a Percona Database Performance Audit. Easy Payment Gateway wanted to improve the performance of its Percona XtraDB Cluster environment.

Percona XtraDB Cluster for ensuring performance

Easy Payment Gateway makes it easy for merchants to add multiple payment solutions and credit card processing to their online business. The system offers real-time reporting, transaction routing, and fraud management, so optimal database performance is a critical success factor. To help ensure this performance, the company has relied on Percona XtraDB Cluster for a number of years. Percona XtraDB Cluster is a robust, cost-effective, open source MySQL clustering solution for powering highly available applications in the most demanding public, private and hybrid cloud environments.

Resolving inefficiencies and bottlenecks

When IT administrators noted a general drop in query performance and an out-of-memory error during schema changes, they turned to a familiar partner, Percona, to identify and resolve any inefficiencies and bottlenecks, and optimize overall performance. Easy Payment Gateway previously relied on Percona Consulting to prepare for a major upgrade and was very happy with the recommendations, so it was an easy decision to rely on Percona again to audit the performance of the company’s 3-node Percona XtraDB Cluster environment. The audit includes a documented review of the entire database server stack — from infrastructure to the schema, to queries — along with recommended improvements.
