Scaling to N boxes is first a matter of distributing the load.
Personally I like to use LVS for that - if you're aiming really high,
maybe supersparrow.
Second you will have to look at how to distribute the data - usually the
answer is segmentation or replication, with a few different twists.
To reduce network traffic and response times, cacheing comes into it in
many places.
