Hello.

From http://www.mysql.com/products/cluster/faq.html:

Near-linear scalability shown on system where each storage node executed on the following hardware: CPU: 2x Intel Xeon Processors at 2.8 GHz Memory: 16GB RAM HDD: 4 x 73GB SCSI RAID 1 Controller Gigabit Ethernet

I think, the best counsultation you can take from MySQL commercial support, see https://order.mysql.com/?ref=ensita

one more thing, about MySQL cluster with a 6-8GB database. Which processor do I need in each storage node for a decent performance?

I am thinking Xeon 2.8 or 3.0 GB, do P4 good enought to power such cluster?

Assume I have enough main memory

Thanks

Hi list ! I want a high availability DB whcih means I need failover andload balancing.

Can I use MySQL cluster to achieve this? becasue MySQL cluster is only in gramma, I wonder if I can use it in a commerical environment.

Also if my website is commerical, do I need to have commerical license of MySQL?

How about MaxDB?
