Community Events

Percona Live 2026 is back! Join the open source database community for three days of deep technical talks, hands-on workshops, and real conversations with people building and running MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, MariaDB, Valkey, and more in production.

Setting up data-at-rest encryption correctly requires more than just flipping a switch. In this session, Konstantin Trushin will explain how Percona Server for MongoDB implements this critical security layer, covering the two-level key architecture and integration with industry-standard Key Management Systems (KMS) such as KMIP-compatible servers and HashiCorp Vault (along with its open source alternative, OpenBao).

Discover how Percona’s latest PostgreSQL Operator feature transforms database backups with Kubernetes VolumeSnapshots. Learn the setup, benefits such as near-instant snapshots and improved disaster recovery, key limitations, and practical deployment steps for production workloads.

Discover how Percona is bringing Vector Search and Full-Text Search capabilities to the open source MongoDB ecosystem. In this session, we will walk through the strategic roadmap for integrating mongot, the engine powering these features into the Percona stack, offering community users a way to break free from Atlas-only limitations.

Traffic spikes and “noisy neighbors” can quickly saturate backend resources. In this session, Martin Visser (Valkey and Redis Tech Lead @ Percona) explores robust rate-limiting strategies to protect system resilience and ensure fair resource allocation.

Discover how CVE-2025-14847 (“MongoBleed”) can expose MongoDB to high-severity information disclosure—allowing an unauthenticated remote client to extract fragments of uninitialized server memory when zlib network compression is enabled on a network-reachable instance.

Sorted Sets are one of the most powerful data structures in Valkey and Redis, but they are often only associated with gaming leaderboards. In this session, Martin Visser (Valkey and Redis Tech Lead @ Percona) dives deep into how sorted data structures can solve complex engineering challenges with high efficiency.

Setting up efficient LLM applications requires more than just calling an API. In this session, Martin Visser explains how semantic caching can significantly reduce the cost and latency of Large Language Model (LLM) applications by reusing meaningfully similar responses instead of exact matches.

We’re excited to share that Peter Zaitsev, Founder of Percona, will present his talk “Why PostgreSQL Took the Crown from MySQL and What Lies Ahead.” After participating in Percona PGConf.EU in Riga, Peter is bringing this session to our community once again, with updated insights and perspectives from recent conversations with PostgreSQL experts and users.

Join the Community Office Hours This session focuses on MySQL built on Percona Server for MySQL with native MySQL Group Replication on Kubernetes. It’s a significant step for the MySQL and Cloud Native community, offering more open-source options for deploying reliable, consistent MySQL clusters at scale.
