 When setting up Percona repositories, you can choose between two paths: Percona Distribution for MySQL or Percona Server for MySQL alone. Both use the same core database engine but are designed for different operational scopes.

-To read about the standalone server product, see the [Percona Server for MySQL 8.4 :octicons-link-external-16:](https://docs.percona.com/percona-server/8.4/) documentation.
+To read about the standalone server product, see the [Percona Server for MySQL {{vers}} :octicons-link-external-16:](https://docs.percona.com/percona-server/{{vers}}/) documentation.

The **Percona Server-based deployment variant** with [asynchronous replication :octicons-link-external-16:](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/{{vers}}/en/replication.html) utilizes the primary / secondary replication model. It enables you to create geographically distributed infrastructures with the support for disaster recovery. However, this deployment variant does not guarantee data consistency on all nodes at the given moment and provides high availability of up to 4 nines.

The **Percona Server-based deployment variant** with [Group Replication :octicons-link-external-16:](https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/{{vers}}/en/group-replication.html) enables you to create fault-tolerant systems with redundancy by replicating the system state to a set of servers. *Percona Server for MySQL*-based deployment with Group Replication offers a high grade of high availability (4-5 nines) and almost instant fail over when associated with a proxy.

+    This release does not include the Percona Toolkit component. We will add it once a Percona Toolkit version compatible with MySQL {{vers}} becomes available.

-    ProxySQL contains counters that have not been updated to use the new terminology. Unexpected results may occur. In an 8.4.x environment, the binlog reader errors out during initialization due to the use of old terminology, such as the SHOW MASTER STATUS command.
