When I was still there, it was ~30, running in an "n-2" mode (i.e. you
can lose up to two nodes without losing anything).  The asset server
wasn't MySQL, but was a third party "solution" from Isilon; the
interface was via REST.

Your inventory (not the assets themselves, but the list of asset IDs
that you have in your inventory) was stored in MySQL databases.  There
were ~20 of them, and each of them had two mirrors (for live backup
purposes).
