A friend was recently asking about our backend database systems. Our systems are able to successfully handle high-volume transactional traffic through our API coming from various customers, having vastly different spiking patterns, including traffic from a site that’s in the top-100 list for highest traffic on the net. Don’t get me wrong; I don’t want to sound overly impressed with what our little team has been able to accomplish, we’re not perfect by any means and we’re not talking about Google or Facebook traffic levels. But serving requests to over one million unique users in an hour, and doing 50K
