The Wiki stuff is interesting. We may be headed in that direction. Right now we are at 6 servers. we have two DB servers that Flash backup to each other. What we need to do now is to run a master and a bunch of slaves. I was thinking of adding just one DB server and doing Master Slave with just the UBB DB. But we have a lot of custom 3rd party stuff we've built and we actually have around 40dbs total. If I'm going to Master Slave the UBB DB I may as well do the rest of them because it will give us some good hardware failure protection.
The new servers will cost around 2k each but we would loose more then that in revenue if we were down for half a day. So it's easy insurance.
From the looks of it none of you have done this before with your UBB DBs. So I'll be sure to report how it goes.
