I think one of the devs mentioned .ml runs on a 16 GB quad-core VPS (dedicated?). the way it's designed, is it possible to shard or otherwise horizontally scale the server, with multiple fail-over instances under the same domain?

You can run multiple frontends and backends on multiple machines. And I'm pretty sure that you can also run PostgreSQL on multiple machines.
