6. Do MySQL replication
By this do you mean geographically seperate web servers?
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/replication-intro.html Better response time for clients can be achieved by splitting the load for processing client queries between the master and slave servers. SELECT queries may be sent to the slave to reduce the query processing load of the master. Statements that modify data should still be sent to the master so that the master and slave do not get out of synchrony. This load-balancing strategy is effective if non-updating queries dominate, but that is the normal case. -- brian@brianpuccio.net GPG Key ID 0xBBD2401F
