Hi everyone,
I've got a question about how to size the server hardware for a MySQL
system that I've got to buy and build. We're going to be putting a
database on MySQL that will contain upwards of 20 million rows of data.
This data will be used by Java applications running under Tomcat to
provide web pages, Java data objects and probably most importantly SOAP
web services. The total number of concurrent users of this data is not
know, but could be thousands / hour. The database will be essentially
read only, no transactions or updates by users. The whole thing will be
running on a RedHat Enterprise Linux AS server. What I'd like to know
is what kind of machine should I be buying; CPU speed wise, memory size
wise and disk size? My initial impression is that the requirements I've
outlined above could be handled readily by even a modest machine, but I
wanted to ask for feedback in case my impression is wrong.
Thanks in advance,
Doug Farrell

Thousands of queries/hour to a 20-million-rows-table cannot be handled
by one (normal) machine. I think you should definitely setup more than
1 machine and keep the buffering machines up-to-date from one master.
I would also suggest the use of crontabs to make as much HTML as
possible, in order to save CPU when it's not strictly necessary to
query the database.

Bart,
What's your basis for feeling one server would be overloaded by the
requests I've outlined? I'm not questioning you as much as wanting to
know your experience with this.
Thanks for your reply,

In replication. I guess I can update the slave if the master is not

Also will this create problems when the master comes back and the slave
copies updates from the master log file?

Hi
I am running MySQL 4.0.13 with my-medium.cnf (attached) on a Solaris 8, 4x450
Mhz, 4gb RAM. All my tables are InnoDB. Currently my ibdata1 is 1.8 gb. I have
about 1 gig space left on the same partition. Also it is excruciatingly slow
now. How do prevent the ibdata1 from filling up the disk partition ? How do I
increase the speed on my MySQL? Please help.

I am setting up a huge database in mysql, and I get the above error in

that barrier.
A google search did not turn up anything useful.

Hi
Version of MySQL as yet undetermined but this will be running on White

Basically whats the maximum table size in GB that MySQL allows? We are
developing an application that streams content - The streams are created
by a CMS from a raw file that gets uploaded by a user - These raw files
are stored in the db by the app. In Oracle i'm used to creating mutiple
datafiles that make up a tablespace and so no singe data file ever
