title: What would be my best MySQL Synchronization method?
body: <p>We're moving a social media service to be on separate data centers as our other hosting provider's entire data center went down. Twice. </p>
  
  <p>This means that both websites need to be synchronized in some sense -- I'm less worried about the code of the pages, that's easy enough to sync, but they need to have the same database data.</p>
  
  <p>From my research on SO, it seems MySQL Replication is a good option, but the MySQL manual, for scaling out, says that its best when there are far more reads then there are writes/updates:
  <a href="http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/replication-solutions-scaleout.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/replication-solutions-scaleout.html</a></p>
  
  <p>In our case, it's about equal. We're getting around 200-300 thousand requests a day right now, and we can grow rapidly. Every request is both a read and write request.</p>
  
  <p>What would be the best method or tool to handle this?</p>
