Normalised data is for sissies

Keep multiple copies of data around

Makes searching faster

Have to ensure consistency in the application logic

But wait!

•Partial replication saves the day•Replicate the portion of the database we want to search.

•But change the table types on the slave to MyISAM

•It can keep up because it’s only handling I/U/D’s on a couple of tables

•And we can reduce the I/U/D’s with a little bit of vertical partitioning
