Can Percona be run from a DirectAdmin Panel?

It usually run MySQL. But what if I try to replace it?

Currently MySQL is very much heavy on our Amazon server. Creating drag. So, I want to try something new.

I thought they were an extension of MySQL itself. Will have to check out Percona's licensing alright.

And if you want a lightweight version then why don't just try MariaDB? They are very easy to install and handle. And moreover in many cases they even best good old Mysql.
