Some days ago, there was a news in the Heise Newsticker (most important IT news in germany), about MySQL clustering. http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/46511 "4*2 processors with 100000 replicated transactions per second" was the main statement.

[...] yes, you are right! One additional thing: when updating from 7.x to 7.y, a new initdb is needed. This means: If I have some GB Data, the RDBMS is some ours down for upgrading.

I guess this is not really easy; but it is important! Ciao Alvar - -- ** Alvar C.H.
