Our server will be home to 50-100 separate clients. Each client will have their own set of databases that will be accessed by 10-60 users at each client's site.
In terms of performance, is it better to have 1 instance of MySQL servicing multiple databases, or multiple instances of MySQL each serving 1 database? Here's some more information to work with: Each client has 3 databases. Database: 500 tables. 13 tables sized 10-100MB. Remaining tables all less that 10MB. (This is the only database that is updated. The others are just for reference.) Main table grows at a rate of a few hundred MB/year. Database2: 50 tables. 3 tables sized 10-100MB. All other tables less than 10MB. No data growth. Database3: 179 tables. 10 tables sized 1-15MB. All other tables less than 1MB. No data growth. --Eric Disclaimer - June 16, 2006 This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for [EMAIL PROTECTED] If you are not the named addressee you should not disseminate, distribute, copy or alter this email.
