Percona is glad to announce the release of Percona Server 5.7.25-28 on February 18, 2019. Downloads are available [here](http://www.percona.com/downloads/Percona-Server-5.7/Percona-Server-5.7.25-28/) and from the [Percona Software Repositories](https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-server/5.7/installation.html).

This release is based on [MySQL 5.7.25](http://dev.mysql.com/doc/relnotes/mysql/5.7/en/news-5-7-25.html) and includes all the bug fixes in it. Percona Server 5.7.25-28 is now the current GA (Generally Available) release in the 5.7 series.

All software developed by Percona is open-source and free.

In this release, Percona Server introduces the variable binlog\_skip\_flush\_commands. This variable controls whether or not FLUSH commands are written to the binary log. Setting this variable to ON can help avoid problems in replication. For more information, [refer to our documentation](https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-server/5.7/flexibility/binlogging_replication_improvements.html).

Note

If you’re currently using Percona Server 5.7, Percona recommends upgrading to this version of 5.7 prior to upgrading to Percona Server 8.0.
