We're using a somewhat similar setup for the saving of user location data. The 
usrloc data is distributed across several databases, you could also provide a 
spare database for better reliability. But the main reason for the 
implementation of this functionality was the better scalability. 
This solution is quite complex, so the management of a HA database should be 
the easiest way to solve your problem.
