how to handle million articles

  • Hi there,

    We are trying to find a solution to handle a million+ articles for a WP website. We managed to import all the articles and pictures but have issues with the DB queries. For example the query for homepage takes about 8 seconds. We installed w3 total cache and configured it and we use Amazon RDS for the database and AWS (EC2 etc) for the rest.

    We are looking for a solution that doesnt imply modifying the WordPress core, because we would like to be able to use plugins or update them when necessary.

    We know that many websites with millions of articles use wordpress but we’re not sure what’s their approach and how they handle it.

    Any help regarding what to do in order to improve the speed of the website would be much appreciated.

    Thank you.
