I just want to make a big database as explained in my first mail ... At the
beginning we will have aprox. 150 000 000 records ... each month we will add
about 4/8 millions new rows in constant flow during the day ... and in same
time web users will access to the database in order to read those data.
Stored data are quite close to data stored by google ... (we are not making a
google clone ... just a lot of data many small values and some big ones ...
that's why I'm comparing with google for data storage).
Then we will have a search engine searching into those data ...

Dealing about the hardware, for the moment we have only a bi-pentium Xeon
2.8Ghz with 4 Gb of RAM ... and we saw we had bad performance results ... so
we are thinking about a new solution with maybe several servers (server
design may vary from one to other) ... to get a kind of cluster to get better
performance ...

Am I clear ?
