Your database should be located in the same datacenter as your application code, otherwise you are going to be in a world of hurt... imagine doing 10 synchronous queries with 100ms of connection latency. If you are using something like CakePHP, your application could be doing 100's of queries per page view. I really like Slicehost if you want something cheap. You get a Xen instance starting at $20 a month, and you can upgrade the instance or add instances with about 2 mouse clicks. -John C. _______________________________________________ New York PHP Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk NYPHPCon 2006 Presentations Online http://www.nyphpcon.com Show Your Participation in New York PHP http://www.nyphp.org/show_participation.php
