About Percona Server
Percona has improved the MySQL database server, with a significant improvement in functionality and performance over MySQL. This release improves the performance of InnoDB in high load situations, provides some very useful performance diagnostic tools for DBAs, and additional parameters and commands to control server behavior.
The Percona server contains only the MySQL server version and does not provide a corresponding improvement to MySQL's Connector and GUI tools.
Percona Server uses some google-mysql-tools, Proven scaling, and Open Query to transform MySQL.
