ibnclaudius Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 I'm developing a kind of social network. I've got a question, say it to grow very quickly, I would have to run it across multiple servers to support all users, but I have no idea how I would do it. I'm basically using PHP / MySQL. Could anyone give me a hand? Thanks. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/251435-multiple-servers/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikesta707 Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 PHP/MySQL has absolutely nothing to do with server management. This is the wrong forum for that kind of question, but you will want to consult a sever management forum most likely. And really what you end up doing depends entirely on how you set up your servers, what regions they serve, and if each server serves a different region, or you have multiple servers serving the same region (and thus having the same data) but serving different parts of the region. Basically, this question is very broad, somewhat complicated, and depends entirely on how your specific service is set up Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/251435-multiple-servers/#findComment-1289549 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibnclaudius Posted November 19, 2011 Author Share Posted November 19, 2011 I basically don't want a slow site if it has many users.. Could you please indicate me a forum?

Fadion Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 If you have no idea how to optimize your services, leave it to someone who knows. Server administration isn't something you can learn in a few days in forums. And btw, if your social network isn't something that blows away everything in existence, I doubt you'll come to the point where traffic is an issue...
