Is there any company providing this kind of services?

    You wouldn't gain much in the way of speed from this, since you can't keep both of your databases in sync with read/writes happening on both database servers.

    If you're wanting to have the MySQL database synced, one would be designated as a master, and the other as a slave. The slave only would be able to run SELECT queries, while the master would be just like your normal MySQL server, but replicating all changes made on it nearly instantly to the slave database server.

    Give me a PM if you'd like, and we can explore what you're wanting, and how I can help you with that.
