# Aug 9th 2008, 05:32 AD7six Howard``: semi linchpin like.
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:32 achew22 AD7six: from the API it looks like you just pass conditions (required) http://api.cakephp.org/class_model.html#e479060f5069beff0f8888b70a314ff1
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:32 Howard`` pretty much AD7six, i'm thinking that could work
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:33 Howard`` something along the lines of a base26 shard for asset references, then a dynamic database structure which holds the related user information and records, this would allow their entire account to be moved at any time needed.
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:33 AD7six achew22: I'm not a screen reader - and the answer is right in front of you.
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:34 AD7six Howard``: why think about sharding right at the beginning
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:34 Howard`` well the people i'm going to be marketing through are only going to be making money through referrals
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:34 Howard`` They're expecting to reach out to about 500k people
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:35 Howard`` even if the conversion rate was 1% that would be a pretty significant load from the getgo
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:36 Howard`` These people only make money based on referrals and are tight on who they'll brand apparently
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:36 achew22 AD7six: damn me... cascade huh. Thanks
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:36 Howard`` it's a Joint Venture as they refer to it
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:37 AD7six Howard``: I wouldn't set a fixed idea on the number of dbs - use a formula and factor to define the limits. so that you can say "well, 1 db isn't enough - change $n to 2, resync dbs (move things around) and off we go again"
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:38 achew22 AD7six: did you know that prager from Revision 3 writes in cake?
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:38 AD7six Howard``: using something that is none-linear to shard on will give you poor performance
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:38 AD7six Howard``: use something like the last char (or last 2 chars) of the numeric/random id.
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:38 Howard`` yeah I'm trying to understand all of this performance stuff, it's a lot to take in really
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:38 AD7six if arbitary shards are the goal taht is
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:39 Howard`` They are, is it possible to get cake to generate tables on the fly by the way?
# Aug 9th 2008, 05:39 Howard`` not tables..
