Hello,
    I am working on a website for a client which is basically biological
database, and some have pictures, I am not allowed to give more out. It will
be stored in MySQL.

    Basically the client says there are about 500 million different items of
data, which each holds about 10 small text fields. There are no logical
splits in the data. So I cant just split it over multiple servers, with one
server holding type a etc. There are also multiple tables, which link
together.

    To be honest I want to do this myself, although I have never done a
website over multiple servers, or basically got to the limit over using one
server. Are there any resources or links or helpful comments on how to do
this please?

    How much will one server take?

    Is there a way to make multiple Linux servers act like one database as
it should be faster this way?

    I am planning to use multiple Linux servers, how much would I need?

    Thanks!

    Steve
