A couple of weeks back I asked on this list about how a Linux CF box
connecting to a separate Linux MySQL server would handle load.
My client's site is currently getting about 6-10 page views per second in
peak time. All images will be stored on a separate media server and I am
building the app to use static pages as much as possible.
I am now looking at the possibility of running an NT or 2000 server instead,
and using SQL server as the database. Quite simply, it is easier for me to
get good hosting support for this platform in the US (the site will be
hosted in the US, I am in Australia so support must be good).
I am looking at one or two Dual P3-700 machines with 1GB RAM and a RAID 5
system as the main CF Servers and a similar box to run the database. Will
this configuration handle the load using NT? Am I likely to see
greater/lesser performance with SQL Server vs MySQL?
Thanks for any replies.
