We are warehousing real-time data. The data is received at up to T1 speeds, and is broken up and stored into the database in approximately 25 different tables. Currently MySQL is doing terrific, we are using MyISAM tables and are storing 24 hours worth of data but we don't have any users and we need to store 72 hours worth of data.
Our concern is that when we start letting our users (up to 200 simultaneous) hit the database, we won't be able to keep up with ingesting and serving data with the MyISAM locking scheme. We have tested Oracle and PostgreSQL which fell behind on the ingest. The current production system uses regular ISAM files, but we need to make a certification which requires a relational database. Also, the current production system doesn't have the feature list the new system has. Is there a better database solution or do you think MySQL can handle it? If MySQL can handle it, would we be better off using InnoDB or MyISAM tables?
