Introduction

One of the features that make MySQL so great is its easy replication set-up. If you are experienced and know-how to do it, it takes you about 15 minutes to set-up a slave. What you have in the end is a replication from one master to one or several slaves. So you can build a top-down data stream pyramid and spread your data on many slaves.
