Database configuration will be as optimized as possible. Both me and the 9-year-experience DBA will be optimizing the db - so that will most-likely not be a problem. The main problem is getting solid evidence that MySQL (or any other OSS db, if proof cannot be obtained about MySQL) can handle the amount of data we will be getting. If proof cannot be obtained about an OSS solution, we will be going with the already-obtained proof, albeit MUCHLY more expensive, solution of MS-SQL. --Jason PS - Thanks Nicolas for your suggestions. I'm looking into emailing MySQL and searching out their whitepapers now. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
