Hi @AneeshBabu thank you for posting to the Percona forums!  
The recommended method to follow for users who would like to migrate from Percona Server for MySQL to Percona XtraDB Cluster are to deploy PXC as a replica cluster using asynchronous replication from the Primary to a single Replica node. Then when the PXC cluster is fully caught up, fail over your writes from PS for MySQL to the PXC platform. We have published several blog posts on this topic:

Hi @AneeshBabu , sure! I have included a resource to help get you started with PXC:
