Data from my business's transactions are stored in a few dozen tables in about 5 databases. Right now the MySQL server with dual RAID 0 80 gig drives. So far the data which stores about 4 years worth of data only takes up 1 gig. There are about 4 or five work stations that store data on this server.
For some time I have been considering replication for added redundancy so that should something happen to the server I could quickly deploy the slave as the main server until the problem is fixed. However, now I reading about great MySQL clustering is. What exactly is clustering and should I look to employ it instead of replication? I'm thinking I really don't need clustering as my transactions are plenty fast and don't seem to overload my server am I right? Thanks for any help.
