Percona Distribution for MySQL 9.7.2 using Percona XtraDB Cluster has been released

Percona Distribution for MySQL 9.7.2 using Percona XtraDB Cluster has been released on November 02, 2026.

Try it out using the Installation guide.

Known issues

  • In 9.7.x environments, the ProxySQL binlog reader can fail to initialize because it uses legacy commands, such as SHOW MASTER STATUS. Some internal counters also use outdated terminology. To address most terminology issues, enable the terminology_use_previous system variable on the database server. This workaround addresses only terminology compatibility and may not fix all failures.
