How can i know if percona is installed

I though it is a silly question but after searching all over internet could not find an answer. So how do I check if I have Percona or original MySQL installed on the server?

Another way to check is to issue "SHOW PLUGINS" from your mysql client.

If you see anything XTRADB such as XTRADB_READ_VIEW/XTRADB_INTERNAL_HASH_TABLES/XTRADB_RSEG then you know it is Percona Server since they add in XTRADB. That will not be part of Oracle Community.

service mysql status

On a centos/fedora based server, this command is a pseudonym for

systemctl status mysql

it will report

mysqld.service - MySQL Percona Server

If you have percona installed. You may need root permissions.
