MySQL spanned over several systems

2002-04-06 Thread Daniel Page

Hi,

I would like to try to implement a MySQL server that is spanned over several
machines (a sort of database cluster) - as this is only a test, I am not too
woried about the end OS, but I will probably use a Mandrake 8.1 or 8.2 Linux
distribution.

I have found in the manual information about running several servers on the
same system, but nothing on running one (or several linked) servers that can
run queries on a database distributed over several systems...

Any information, passed experiences, or links to ressources on the web will
be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Daniel

Try linux virtual server.
You can Load Balance any port on a multitude of servers.
Your MySQL Servers you would load balance would have to be read-only
slaves though.

We are currently running two linux virtual servers to load-balance
same-port services on multiple servers with multiple Unix OSes.
The Linux Virtual Servers are even clustering themselves for fail-over.
