how many gigabytes of data are we talking about and how many queries per sec (or,even better, the mean response time of the database) ? What's your estimated growth ? Sure, if you are around 500GB, +300queries/sec and +10k users, it'd be time to figure out a scale-out approach (in which a "logical" separation makes sense as it's the easiest one) for the backend. Just don't think too hard if you are below the previous specs. VS these days are cheap.
