in reply to Virtual/distributed database with DBI

The most obvious solution is to find a new ISP. There are dozens of ISPs that do what you need with minimal cost.

As for what you're talking about ... nothing has been written that I know that will partition data across databases. Furthermore, this is a bad idea because you lose the ability to run queries across the partitions. In other words, find a proper solution.


My criteria for good software:
  1. Does it work?
  2. Can someone else come in, make a change, and be reasonably certain no bugs were introduced?

    Yeah, that's pretty much what I expected, but there are others involved who are much-less-than-excited over the idea of migrating to another server, whether with the same provider or not. So I had to check...

    Thanks for the confirmation.
