I need to log all post and get requests on web site in the database.
There will be two tables:
I will use it only for analytical reports once per month. No regular usage of this data.
I have about one million requests a day and the request parameters table will be very huge.
Can I handle such a large table in MySQL with no problems?
The usual solution of this type of problem is to write a program that parses the logs from the whole month. If You don’t need sophisticated MySQL capabilities, You should consider this approach.
If You really need the database, then consider parsing logs offline. Otherwise, if Your database goes down, You will loose data. Logs are know to be pretty safe.
Table indexes are not free. The more indexes You have, the faster the queries run, but the more indexes You have, the slower inserting data becomes.
