Overview: Helping 17 million people stay in touch with their friends and make new connections with others is a big job. However, as the largest social networking site on the Web, Friendster is up to the task - even with 60 million page-views each day. To manage such a large (and growing) enterprise, Friendster selected MySQL Network to provide the right combination of affordable database reliability and scalability.
