Which MYSQL operator should be used?

MySQL & MariaDB Percona Operator for MySQL
1

Hello,

we use currently github .com/percona/percona-xtradb-cluster-operator in production but we have issues:
github .com/percona/percona-xtradb-cluster-operator/issues/1819 we are not able to set limits or size the db to something smaller then 16GB Memory which is really terrible when we just want a small cluster for a testing database (which should behave exactly the same like their brother in production which is bigger sized)

so i think we should take a step back and ask first which is even the correct operator to deploy mysql in production right now with percona operators? because right now i see 3 operators

github .com/percona/percona-server-mysql-operator
github .com/percona/percona-xtradb-cluster-operator
github .com/percona/everest-operator

Hi

The github .com/percona/everest-operator is responsible for the Percona Everest application and does not create databases.

I will move your question to the MySQL Operators category, you will get faster help there.

Hi @Elytscha_Smith, We will check this task to help you. Do you need to have MySQL 5.7? It is EOL now.

yes mysql 5.7 is needed for this specific application, but this happens also with mysql 8.x
