I know quite a bit about tg2 app that will serve 25 million dynamic page views a day, it's not yet in production but some performance testing has been done.
We will deploy with nginx load balancing mog-wsgi instances that serve up the dynamic content. It's a bit more complicated than this, but basically nginx will serve up static content, and we're expecting to be able to easily handle this traffic with a couple of quad core web server boxes. We could probably get away with one, but we want to have load balancing for redundancy not just for performance. We're not using ToscaWidgets, the transaction manager, and have been using mongodb for data storage. We had some previous templates written in Jinja, so we're using that for templates, otherwise we'd either use Mako or genshi, but without any match tags. There's a bit of caching in the app, but it's not actually necessary for the current loads, but might be nessisary for the "thundering hoards." I'm looking forward to being able to talk about this more, but you'll have to wait a few more weeks for details. --Mark Ramm On Fri, May 29, 2009 at 7:48 PM, cd34 <[email protected]> wrote: > > What are some sites using TurboGears 2.0 in a production setting? > > Is the site Forward Facing or a backend? > How is the site deployed?
