Hi @Mykhailo_Chornii !  
Theoretically you can rebuild percona server for mongodb without AVX dependency.  
For this please follow the instructions from the [docs](https://docs.percona.com/percona-server-for-mongodb/6.0/install/source.html), but before building it you need to modify the [SConstruct](https://github.com/percona/percona-server-mongodb/blob/v6.0/SConstruct) file by removing default `+sandybridge` optimization. Change this part

```auto
add_option('experimental-optimization',
    action="append",
    choices=experimental_optimization_choices,
    const=experimental_optimization_choices[0],
    default=['+sandybridge'],
    help='Enable experimental optimizations',
    nargs='?',
    type='choice'
)

```

to this

```auto
add_option('experimental-optimization',
    action="append",
    choices=experimental_optimization_choices,
    const=experimental_optimization_choices[0],
    default=[],
    help='Enable experimental optimizations',
    nargs='?',
    type='choice'
)

```

But keep in mind that we haven’t tested it so there may be performance issues
