I need to use some large tables using MySQL under Linux and would welcome suggestions from anyone with any experience. Currently one months data creates a table of 3M records about 750Mb in size. I should like to consolidate 12 Months data (which is expected to grow to say 50M records per month) so I could be looking at 15Gb table plus indexes. This is for 'warehousing' so transactional security and frequent updates are of little concern.
The options I can see include: Merge Tables/INNODB or MyIsam using large file capable file-system (XFS?) Please offer ideas and experience. I don't want to reinvent the wheel.
