Hi,

over the last couple of years our infrastructure rose as we needed and
now we are thinking about the next steps as the access to the servers grows.

Currently we run a couple of Red Hat EL 5.x LAMP systems (e.g. our
webserver, a webmail system, an application server) on 64 Bit hardware
(mostly dualcore servers with about 4 GB ram extendable, hardware raid
5, 2* gbit ethernet).

My question is, what do you think about using e.g. one server as
webserver, the other as mysql server ... so the database traffic will go
across the network. So that I have only one service running on one
server and not like now the webserver bundled with the database.

The most obvious advantage from my point of view: I only have one mysql
server to manage and not three or four. (Likewise the webserver)

The disadvantage would be the delay accross the network I think.


Thanks for any helpful suggestions and best regards

Götz
