I meant to say "My manager is apparently considering CF in place of ASP to handle the combined job, but he needs to be convinced on some things, chiefly the scalability issue." Thanks -----Original Message----- From: Wayne, Kurt [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, July 26, 2000 9:23 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Scalability stories, please? I've just started work in an office whose web site uses ASP to connect to SQL Server databases. This company just bought out a firm in NYC which has been using Cold Fusion to connect to an Oracle database. I was told that after all the other company's content is absorbed we'll want to run ASP to connect to Oracle. However, my new manager asked me privately about scalability issues...all he's seen is the stuff on Allaire's web site. We'll eventually be running the site with dual machines (one a mirror) connecting remotely to the server which contains the Oracle stuff. We anticipate hundreds of thousands of hits daily on the combined site. My question to you all...how do you think CF will handle the connection to Oracle with the anticipated traffic. (My previous CF experience has been either on company intranets or small company web sites...this will be the highest volume of hits I've worked with. Thanks, Kurt J.
