You might want to keep your eye on MySQL Cluster - to be demonstrated at the 2004 MySQL conference, where you might get a chance to swim with the dolphins!

Hello
I am looking for software/hardware solutions to provide loadbalancing and redundancy for mysql databases.
Today we are running 6 separate servers with mysql and each have around 100-200 databases each. But they are not loadbalanced or redundant, so if one machine goes down...well you know.
(runs on RH Linux 9 serving a webapplication in the frontend running on apache)
Another problem is when one server can't handle the load anymore...
What are the best software/hardware to use to get redundancy and loadbalancing of the mysql database.
I know Veritas Foundation Suite HA and EMIC Networks have software for clustering mysql...
Someone know if these are good?
DELL has proposed a solution with 3xservers running mysql with Veritas Foundation Suite HA and shared storage through a SAN. If one server goes down, another can take over it's processes. It sounds really fancy, but does it work well?
anyone have any experience you want to share?
