DURHAM, NC -- (Marketwired) -- 05/12/15 -- Percona, the company that delivers enterprise-class MySQL® and MongoDB® solutions and services, today discussed the success of its fourth annual Percona Live MySQL Conference & Expo 2015, which was held April 13-16, 2015, at The Hyatt Regency Santa Clara and Santa Clara Convention Center.

A record number of attendees -- more than 1,200 -- from around the world converged on Santa Clara, Calif., for the event, which for the first time included a two-day OpenStack Live track and a two-day crash course for aspiring MySQL DBAs called "MySQL 101."

"This was a particularly exciting conference that really had something for everyone," said Peter Zaitsev, CEO of Percona. "A lively keynote discussion with Apple legend Steve Wozniak set the perfect tone, and it was followed by scores of informative and engaging technical sessions and tutorials on both MySQL and OpenStack. We also had a very good MySQL community dinner, a fun game night and the MySQL Community Awards."

During Wozniak's 45 minute keynote, the Apple co-founder and inventor of the Apple I and Apple II computers shared his thoughts on what influenced him growing up, his approach to problem solving, childhood education, artificial intelligence, and more.

The other popular keynotes included:

• Facebook's Harrison Fisk on "Polyglot Persistence @Facebook"
• Facebook's Steaphan Greene on "WebScaleSQL: The Power of Collaboration"
• MariaDB's Patrik Sallner on "1+1 > 2"
• Oracle's Tomas Ulin on "Celebrating MySQL"
• Percona's Rob Young on "Percona's Take on Smart Data Management - What's Next for Products and Services"
• Tesora's Amrith Kumar on "Building Databases for the '-as-a-Service' World"
• VMware's Robert Hodges on "What Has the Cloud Done for My Data Lately?"
• A panel discussion on the next disruptive technology titled "What comes after the Cloud and Big Data?"

Percona CEO Zaitsev also announced Percona's acquisition of Tokutek, creating the first company to offer both MySQL and MongoDB software and solutions. Percona has taken over development and support for TokuDB® and TokuMX™, and now has exclusive rights to the revolutionary Fractal Tree® indexing technology, which enables those products to deliver improved performance, reliability and compression for modern Big Data applications.
