They will be run in a master-master setup (two pairs) with additional and separated hardware for some slave machines which will handle our SELECT queries (btw the ratio between SELECT and INSERT is 1:3 on our website). We will run different databases on each pair (break up certain parts of the database and functionality to be able to scale better and faster).

Well we do monitor a lot of metrics in Ganglia and when we see that the host gets very high load during peek time and response not well anymore it's time to call Dell! @ghost: Hmm, yes that's the plan (and we do it currently on some hosts). But this has not really something to do with this new babys, they are just a replacement for our masters that get a bit old now. In the near future we will seperate the webserver from the mysql slaves, a project that's on our todo list for ages. @Ben: When they are slow!
