I have already answer that on the other thread, but anyway http://nanoserv.si.kz/ , or use the web webserver made with it http://nanoweb.si.kz/. And thinking about your 'requirements', avoid mysql from that equation. There are other faster alternatives in the SQL world. Or even better think about an alternative like mongodb that scale really well. 2010/3/24 Rene Veerman<rene7705@gmail.com>:

Hi.. As a way to take a few steps back from the kinda heated "when will php grow up and support threading" thread, i'm requesting you people list how you scale from 1 server to many servers; what's called cloud computing. In particular, i'm interested in how to set up an application that deals with great amounts of input from many 3rd-party servers, and say a million concurrent viewers who need html calculated from those input streams. So this goes beyond 1 mysql server, and beyond 1 php server. Let's hear it, coz quite frankly i have my doubts about php's ability to scale to cloud computing. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Even recent PostgreSQL offer much more better speed and performance as compared to MySQL. No I'm not joking about it or telling this just by reading articles on the web. Its my experience. I moved my drupal site from MySQL to PostgreSQL (all latest) to see a huge performance boost. :) -- Nilesh Govindarajan Site & Server Administrator www.itech7.com
