Thank you. I saw your post. And it was great. But it still doesn’t suffice my question. Let me elaborate a little. It will be a community site. Where users can upload and share their thoughts. So, what will be the best practices in terms of horizontal scalling? I was hoping to create more droplets/server for that, but use have the same db. Can you please give some advice on it. Thank you once again!
