    • Orchestrator is the replication topology manager for Percona Server for MySQL.

    • HAProxy is the default high-availability and load-balancing solution for Percona XtraDB Cluster.

    • ProxySQL is a high performance, high-availability, protocol-aware proxy for MySQL.

    • Percona Toolkit is the set of scripts to simplify and optimize database operation.

    • MySQL Shell is an advanced client and code editor for MySQL Server.

    • MySQL Router is lightweight middleware that provides transparent routing between your application and back-end MySQL servers.
