How much active users can Glide potentially handle?

Hey all!

I have one question for one of the projects. We have “unlimited” personal users now on Maker. However, I wonder, how much monthly active users can a Glide app realistically handle without disruptions now from technical POV.

I suppose that the main technical limitation here is not actually monthly active users, but how much users can use the app simultaneously, does it make sense?

Can you share your records, what was the largest project in terms of maximim montly/daily active users you had? How complex was the app and did you experience any problems? :pray:

I feel like before, when using Classic Glide Apps, there were showcases in community on apps used by +10k users per 1-2 days, like conference apps etc. But I am not sure if such use cases can still survive with current glide’s focus on internal apps.

Copying the response from David in Slack:

"I’m pretty sure there is no limit if you have row owners turned on in the users table. E.g. 100k users should be able to log in at once.

This could cause some long queues to form in our backend so maybe you’d see some temporary latency as Glide processes a backlog of new users."
