Mark, That's true, I assumed they would run top notch hardware. I made the comparison to sites running high performance hardware with a relatively similar amount of hits looking at the server amount.

It takes 5 metros to haul the same amount of cargo as 1 van - right? -Mark -----Original Message----- From: Micha Schopman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 16, 2005 8:46 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: bg & myspace If they need 15 server to handle a mail application then there must be something terribly wrong. There are comparable sites which ran their entire non cached site on 15 servers with relatively same amount of hits. Not to mention they seem to run an application pool for each section of the site, pfeww... I have the idea they need a lot of restructuring. I could be dead wrong, but something does not look right here.

There are just over 30 separate applications that make up the MySpace web site. If you go to the MySpace web site, you'll notice URLs for "mail.myspace.com", "forums.myspace.com", "music.myspace.com", etc.; these define the separate applications. For example, the "mail" application pool consists of 15 servers that only serve the mail application ("mail.myspace.com"). The upgrade from CF5 to BD.NET is being done one application at a time. Since I know which applications have been upgraded to BD.NET and which are still running on CF5, I can tell whether a problem is with a BD.NET server pool or CF5 server pool based on which application is exhibiting the problem (for example, in an earlier comment, "Bill" said he was having problems with the home page, which is still running on a CF5 server pool).

I thought I recalled from the keynote that they said they migrated an entire server to BD and then threw it up there to see how it coped in the melee. I might be remembering wrong, though. Certainly, it makes more sense to do applications at once - but I just thought that I had heard it differently. (And, one of the things that Sean listed as BD came up with the CF 5.0 error when I hit it.)
