2022 was an exciting year for Percona Monitoring and Management (PMM). Planning for resources of a PMM Server host instance can be tricky because the numbers can change depending on the DB instances being monitored by PMM. We’ve added and improved many features, including Alerting and Backup Management.

Zero day refers to security vulnerabilities that are discovered in software when teams had “zero days” to work on an update or a patch to remediate the issue and, hence, are already at risk. If a malicious attacker can identify a key software vulnerability, they can exploit the vulnerability, allowing them to gain access to your systems.
