Hi Andreas,

I am not quite sure to what presentation at XML Prague 2013 you are referring to, but I would guess it was mine given that I was working at this topic at that time and I think I would remember hearing someone else giving a talk about it...

Unfortunately, this was a researched project (my master thesis; should be somewhere on basex.org, but really is a thesis and hardly of any use if you want to "just use it") and never really was continued after 2014 and was far, far from being able to go upstream. So I guess for now it is simply not here and it is quite some project so it would require serious effort.

However, if you just have to read you might be able to partition your data in some way it is appropriate for your application and put the different data on different servers/file systems. But this depends heavily on your use case. Also, it might be interessant what you think the limit will be that you need to scale out for reads. Do you simply have so much data you can't store it on one file system. Or do you have so many parallel users you want to gain some performance?

Cheers
Dirk

Betreff: [basex-talk] State of replication and clustering

Hi there,

what is the state of replication and clustering of BaseX?

I found an XML Prague 2013 presentation but almost no documentation on these topics on the website.

In our case we need to scale out horizontally with a growing number of reads (no writes involved).
