Split WP install between 2 databases?

Question

Is it possible for Wordpress to work from two databases?

The reason I ask is that we're approaching our 100mb limit for database size on our host (1and1) but have up to 100 databases, so what I was hoping to do is essentially 'add on' another database for when the limit is reached?

Answer 1

Yes, but that is out of quick and easy realm.

See HyperDB in Codex and repository for starters.
