Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted February 16, 20177 yr Has anyone tried running IPB using a remote DB? My plan is to purchase a VPS just for the DB but I'd like to get some feedback prior to pulling the trigger.
February 16, 20177 yr If you buy another vps on the same datacenter with the same network, its ok. Otherwise you will add latency and your site will probably end up being slower.,

February 18, 20177 yr Author Update in case anyone is considering doing this. I would stay away from Amazon RDS it is insanely expensive especially for high traffic sites. What I did do was spin up a VPS with the same host that the forum is hosted and installed the database on that, it's working great.
