Optimizing MySQL and InnoDB on Solaris 10 for World's Largest Photo Blogging Community

Frank Mashraqi (NetEdge)

Fotolog is a top 19 Internet destination with more than 12 million members, 315 million photos and more than 3 billion page views a month. In just a few years Fotolog has become a social phenomenon in Europe and South America. Through modifications to its data architecture, Fotolog was able to serve four times the number of users using the same number of database servers. A non-conventional, hybrid presentation that conveys the importance of scalability, performance tuning and schema optimizations in a practical way.
