Yeah. What concerns is how well the hardware we buy now will fit into our ultimate, highly scalable infrastructure.So, should we buy some Alphas next? I've never owned or bought a non-x86 processor. 64-bit processors are nearly a requirement for big databases, though, if you want it to be fast. Thoughts?
In other words, if we have 200,000 users someday soon and need 64-bit multiple CPU machines to a future where we might grow 60K to 80K in a month, will we be able to use what we have spent previously, or will old hardware be a burden to us, with the previous investment actually making it harder to justify biting the bullet and buy the heavy equipment.
I wish I had a better way of judging our potential size and growth rate. Keep in mind that I'm working off of conservative figures, and assuming a decrease in the growth rate. The only problem is that our growth rate has been increasing lately...
64-bit db server?
