Any useful tips for massively scaling PHP applications?

Posted on 10:23 PM by programlover









I am working on a REALLY large project using PHP/MySQL. Does anyone have tips on how to insure that a database intensive PHP application scales effectively? I notice that Facebook.com uses PHP on a massive scale.



Cloud computing?



MemCached?



Apache? Lightspeed?



Thoughts?
