Hello all,

Currently our application and MySQL server are on the same machine.

When should these be seperated? What are the main reasons that we should be having a seperate DB server?
There are at least three possible reasons. First, if your applications are using lots of CPU power, moving them to their own server should speed up the DB. If your applications use a lot of disk I/O, other than the DB, that's another reason. Memory is another. If the machine is maxed out on RAM and you are using all of it, having the applications on their own machine should also help. If you move it, you need to be sure to have enough network band width between the two machines.
