Default Question about servers and speed.

Hello,
I have a few different cPanel hosting accounts, all from different hosts such as Host Gator, GoDaddy, etc. I am currently running my vBulletin forum on one server, and it goes pretty fast since we are still little. But, I really like to add a lot of things to the forums that make the database bigger and thus, I suppose, giving us less room. Now about my question:

Is there anyway I could "hook" up all those servers together, using the same vBulletin files, same info, same everything [etc], thus possibly making my vBulletin forum faster and letting us have more room to expand?

Another reason I ask this is because a different site that I am a member of that has a huge member base, a lot of plugins and hacks, and tons of user groups, said that they are running on eight (8) different servers, and they are a very speedy site.

For default vBulletin, you can't separate anything ( you can separate just an icon status etc )
but with vBulletin modification you can separate anything
example :

SQL Database for Category GENERAL DISCUSSION ( this category have high traffic ) in Server A
SQL Database for Categoty COMPUTER ( this category have high traffic ) in Server B
All PHP File in Server C
Blog + Groupe + Private Message in server D

but, u need advanced in PHP, Load Balancing, Tweak and etc

Thanks for replying.

Okay, that makes sense now. Could I put the user groups SQL Database in one server and leave all the others things in another server?
And by modifications, what do you exactly mean? Do I have to install a modification to the vBulletin system or just download the databases and go from there?

If you have multiple servers at the same host, then you might be able to setup a seperated server as webserver and database server.

With an advanced setup you can setup multiple webservers with a load balancer, but that is only needed for very large sites and all these servers would still need to be hosted at the same physical location.
