This business opportunity is serious, real and it is here hence our posting
to this mailing list. This just further confirms asterisk popularity and
readiness to be implemented at large scale(s).

As for MySQL comment, SWITCHware uses a local copy of MySQL at each location
per blade server with replication done at regional/state/country level(s).
This gives as opportunity to implement archiving of data
and to use another database for other levels if that becomes necessary.
