> **NOTE:** This is a fork of the abandoned [Orchestrator](https://github.com/openark/orchestrator) project. Percona is not the public maintainer of the Orchestrator project. We modify this fork almost exclusively for use in our Kubernetes Operators, but we make our changes available to the open-source community if they suit your needs.
> **Maintained by [ProxySQL LLC](https://proxysql.com).** We are committed to keeping orchestrator alive and moving forward. Contributions from the community are welcome — see [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md) to get started.

>We are not currently entertaining external enhancements or feature requests. We do, however, believe Orchestrator has potential and are open to exploring its future as a community-driven project. We welcome collaboration with interested organizations. Our priority is determining whether sufficient resources (time and funding) can be secured to ensure Orchestrator's continued maintenance and development. We're open to discussing potential partnerships with organizations who might be interested in supporting this effort.

The documentation link is hard-coded to https://github.com/proxysql/orchestrator/tree/master/docs. Consider switching this to a relative link (e.g., docs/ or /docs) so it keeps working on forks and doesn’t depend on the default branch name.

This second documentation link is also hard-coded to https://github.com/proxysql/orchestrator/tree/master/docs. Using a relative link (docs/ or /docs) would avoid future rebrand/branch churn and keep the link correct for forks and local renderers.

#### Future Vision

ProxySQL LLC is investing in orchestrator's long-term future:

- **ProxySQL-native integration** — tighter coupling between orchestrator's topology awareness and ProxySQL's query routing for seamless failover.
- **PostgreSQL exploration** — investigating replication management capabilities beyond MySQL.
- **Modernization** — updated dependencies, improved CI/CD, and a path toward a cleaner Go module structure.

The History section uses plain http:// links for Outbrain/Booking.com/GitHub. Please switch these to https:// to avoid mixed-content warnings and to follow modern security best practices.

The years listed for Percona (2024-2025) and ProxySQL LLC (2026-present) in the history section appear to be set in the future. This conflicts with the new banner at the top of the file stating that the project is currently 'Maintained by ProxySQL LLC'. This discrepancy could be confusing for users. Please align the dates in the history section with the current maintainership status.

The Community section links to CONTRIBUTING.md, CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md, and SECURITY.md at the repo root, but those files do not exist in this repository (only docs/contributions.md and docs/security.md are present). Please either add the referenced governance files in this PR, or update these links to point at the existing documents so the README doesn’t introduce broken links.
