[ale] MySQL Cluster

[Lightner, Jeff]

Silence here I think doesn't say that much.  I've noticed that commercial install questions here usually go unanswered whereas discussions of emacs vs vi can go on for days.  I'd think most folks doing clustering for MySQL are doing it in a commercial environment.

Have you looked for MySQL specific forums or mailing lists?

Was I correct in thinking you'd be amenable to Postgresql instead?  If so did you see Geoffrey Meyers' post?

Maria does not support clustering..

And this is one of those cases where I think the silence I have received
(here and other places..) speaks volumes.. :)
