Great write up! Thanks! Im fully aware of that the problem is in the
datastorage but django doesnt support for example sharding or multiple
databases out of the box, the other way around its more about keeping
things dry and normalized which makes it harder to build something
decentralized. Hence this post to see if someone succeded with such a
setup.

Many databases support replication, and you can use an SQL proxy that is smart enough for load balancing.

Chapter 20 in the Django Book details this. The authors have implemented a distributed django system. http://www.djangobook.com/en/1.0/chapter20/ About halfway down there is a section header "scaling".

Hope this helps!
