Percona Operator for MySQL based on Percona XtraDB Cluster (PXC) automates the creation and management of highly available, enterprise-ready MySQL database clusters on Kubernetes.
Within the Percona Operator for MySQL based on Percona XtraDB Cluster we have implemented our best practices for deployment and configuration Percona XtraDB Cluster instances in a Kubernetes-based environment on-premises or in the cloud. The Operator provides the following capabilities to keep the cluster healthy:
- Easy deployment with no single point of failure
- Load balancing and proxy service with either HAProxy or ProxySQL
- Scheduled and manual backups
- Integrated monitoring with Percona Monitoring and Management
- Smart Update to keep your database software up to date automatically
- Automated Password Rotation – use the standard Kubernetes API to enforce password rotation policies for system user
- Private container image registries
You interact with Percona Operator mostly via the command line tool. If you feel more comfortable with operating the Operator and database clusters via the web interface, there is Percona Everest - an open-source web-based database provisioning tool available for you. It automates day-to-day database management operations for you, reducing the overall administrative overhead. Get started with Percona Everest.
Percona Operators are based on the Operator SDK and leverage Kubernetes primitives to follow best CNCF practices.
Please read more about architecture and design decisions.
To learn more about the Operator, check the Percona Operator for MySQL based on Percona XtraDB Cluster documentation.

Below is one of the ways to deploy the Operator using kubectl.
- Deploy the Operator from
deploy/bundle.yaml:
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/percona/percona-xtradb-cluster-operator/main/deploy/bundle.yaml- Deploy the database cluster itself from
deploy/cr.yaml:
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/percona/percona-xtradb-cluster-operator/main/deploy/cr.yaml
See full documentation with examples and various advanced cases on percona.com.
