The Challenge
Choice Home Warranty provides comprehensive and flexible home warranty coverage to protect critical home systems and appliances. With coverage for over two million homes and more than 6.6 million service requests handled, ensuring consistent service requires IT systems that are both responsive and reliable.
As the company expanded, Choice Home Warranty needed a robust and secure database infrastructure capable of meeting increasing demands without requiring dedicated, full-time database administrators. To address this need, Jeff Nolan, the Web Operations Team Lead at Choice, sought Percona’s expertise for database support and guidance.
The Solution
Choice Home Warranty partnered with Percona to migrate their existing database infrastructure to Percona XtraDB Cluster, an open-source, enterprise-grade clustering solution for MySQL. This migration ensured the highest level of availability for their critical applications across diverse deployment environments.
To maintain ongoing database performance and reliability, Choice Home Warranty also engaged Percona Managed Services, which provided 24/7 access to a team of highly skilled MySQL specialists. This partnership allowed Nolan and his team to focus on their core mission while Percona handled database security, performance, and maintenance.
Working with Percona
By partnering with Percona, Nolan and his team can effectively support the business by allowing the company’s developers to work more efficiently without being distracted by database management or maintenance tasks. The Percona team provides the necessary expertise to ensure that the company’s critical databases operate optimally, maintaining peak performance and reliability.
