Hello, I have to plan a content retrieval system and am thinking of using mysql cause it's always been very reliable and convenient for my needs. Now, I do not have any experiences with databases of this size.
The situation is as follows: We have round about 15gig of user documents (mainly MS Office documents such as doc or ppt). These documents needs to be indexed (stored in fulltext fields?) for retrieval in an Intranet (100Mbit I think) with 50 clients. My question is: can this be done with MySQL? What hardware (server) would be needed to get the results in a time anywhere near resonable? And, do the clients need to be tweaked or would it be acceptable to use a Browser for it (php on an Apache)? Any recommendations are very much appreciated.
