Hi everyone I have a requirement to store in the region of 3 million entries per month (30 ish days) of data in a mySQL database totalling a maximum of 2 months (6 Million entries). The database will be 'probably' reside on a Sun V240. I have a similar size database running on an old Sun E450 and it runs like a dog (with three legs). I'll need to access the data and plot the output almost real time, or as close to it as possible. I may have to go down the route of buying another database like DB2, Informix or Oracle but I have no idea of the costs involved or whether I will get improved performance form these compared to mySQL. Anyone have experience of large datasets within mySQL. Thanks Regards Andy
