Hi,
thank you for the links
 
 
I read through the presentation
 
and they did not solve the issue for me -- which presenting a e table from multiple 
shards as one single table (at least for reads) for ODBC clients.
 
 
I also do not think that skypetools do that
 
they have implemented essentially an API on top of their shards (separate db servers)
that does the table querying.  That means that I have to write a separate API for every time
a user decides on a new query.
 
 
May be I misunderstood the approaches, but none of them actually figures out how to
utilize the computing power/memory of multiple servers to satisfy requests that spawn across
servers.
 
I think Oracle supports the ability to at least reference a table in another server, I do not think
PG does that 
 
It is possible that I have to look into the free DB2 server offering (as the free version is exactly meant
to run on underpowered computers)
 
I just wanted to ask the list first.
 
 
thank you

Hello,

 
We were also in search of having a table split across multiple databases but then found out about skypetools and at the same time the following article; http://www.jurriaanpersyn.com/archives/2009/02/12/database-sharding-at-netlog-with-mysql-and-php/, true that it's not done with PG, but the same thing can be done with PG as well.

 
Assume this will be helpful for you.

 
Regards,
Ransika

I think that skype's skytools could be used to create such a solution,
in particular pl/proxy.
