The MySQL clustering seems promising.... you need probably a minimum of a half-dozen or more computers for it to be effective. Seemingly, you may get a few transaction rollbacks if a node dies, but hey, we have the ERXTolerantSaver, right?

MySQL supports clustering built-in in 5.0. We were going to do some load testing on this, but ended up just going with FrontBase for right now, so we didn't end running these tests yet. I don't know MySQL's commit semantics for clustering. The only thing I have read about them is that for clustering, the entire database needs to be in memory. So if you have an enormous database, this might be a problem. For most people, memory is pretty cheap and this probably isn't THAT big of a deal.
