For the curious, when Thursday rolls around, Open Beta will have...

1x Global Cluster (master/slave)
3x User Clusters (master/master)
20x Web Servers
4x Memcache Servers
6x MogileFS Stores
4x Job Servers
4x Perlbal Servers
+ a few miscellaneous machines

For a monthly cost of ~$8,000. This is most certainly overkill for Open Beta. Probably quite a bit overkill. But we decided we'd rather be safe than offline, and we will adjust the spend as appropriate during the rest of May, to bring things down to a sustainable level.

This brings the total number of servers (virtual servers, but still) that will be handling Dreamwidth.org up to nearly fifty. That's a lot of oomph!
