Scaling-out SqlServer? Is it possibile ?

There is a technology available in SQL Server 2005 called Scalable Shared
Databases. However, I have not heard of anyone implementing this technology
yet and it is read-only. Basically, you copy your data to a SAN volume,
mark that volume as read-only, and attach it to multiple servers. Check out
this article for more info. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/910378

Other than that, if you have more control over your application and
database, Peer-to-Peer Replication is about as close as you are going to
get. This is not an "Add-on" technology though and the application
architecture must support it.

Hope this helps!
