While not having much of experience with scaling, scaling the DB by
using InnoDB + UUIDs and Replication should not be a huge Problem.
What I would do for the application is adding a proxy that redirects
like www1.domain.tld www2.domain.tld and so on, though I have no
knowledge about implementation it works for huge download services
like RS very well, and THEY got massive traffic and heavy cpu usage
for sure.
