Hi,
I was reading that many of these high traffic websites actually have 2 databases, 1 database is used ONLY for reads, while the other is for writes.

How does one go about creating such a setup? How does the database where writes are allowed replicated the data to the read only database server?

Most use transactional replication to get the data to the other database.
