Great article on how MySpace managed their growth and scaling issues: http://www.baselinemag.com/print_article2/0,1217,a=198614,00.asp
I am trying to manage a similar scale-up, not quite at the scale as MySpace, but with its own unique challenges. So far I’ve found the resources on the web for serious web high-performance architecture are lacking, but I often find gems like the one above.
StorageMojo.com is also required reading for anyone interested in high-performance internet applications.
