Home Choice Warranty
Percona ExpertOps and Percona XtraDB Cluster
Choice Home Warranty provides comprehensive and flexible home warranty coverage to protect critical home systems and appliances. With coverage for over two million homes and more than 6.6 million service requests handled, ensuring consistent service requires IT systems that are both responsive and reliable.
As the company expanded, Choice Home Warranty needed a robust and secure database infrastructure capable of meeting increasing demands without requiring dedicated, fulltime database administrators. To address this need, Jeff Nolan, the Web Operations Team Lead at Choice, sought Percona’s expertise for database support and guidance.
Choice Home Warranty partnered with Percona to migrate their existing database infrastructure to Percona XtraDB Cluster, an open-source, enterprise-grade clustering solution for MySQL. This migration ensured the highest level of availability for their critical applications across diverse deployment environments.
To maintain ongoing database performance and reliability, Choice Home Warranty also engaged Percona ExpertOps, which provided 24/7 access to a team of highly skilled MySQL specialists. This partnership allowed Nolan and his team to focus on their core mission while Percona handled database security, performance, and maintenance.
Choice Home Warranty moved to Percona XtraDB Cluster for higher availability and performance with its critical applications. The team at Choice also engaged Percona Managed Services for long-term MySQL data management expertise and support delivery. The project delivered the following results:
