I went to a festival, this weekend. And the festival only had a pdf for the schedule and info. I decided to build my own app with Glide. It took some copying and pasting but after that I had a more than handy app with alle relevant info. I shared it with some people I know that work for the festival. They were enthusiastic and started sharing it with the other peopling working there.  
Then I thought: would the app have worked as the official event app? 25.000 people visiting that start checking schedules and band info?  
What do you think?  
What is your experience?

Are you thinking about how it would cope with so many users?

If so I saw this the other day

“one app that was comfortably supporting in excess of 300k users”

> No, not at all. 250 is just the limit on the Pro Team plan. If you need more than that, then you may need to look at an Enterprise plan. Absolutely. I can’t find the reference right now, but I’m aware of one app that was comfortably supporting in excess of 300k users. I guess it’s low because Private Users is considered a valuable feature. So if you want more private users, you just have to pay for them.

That’s great to know, especially because Glide positions itself more and more as tool to build internal business tools.

The PGA app was only used by ~100 people at once. It was used by the people running the event and scanning tickets, not by attendees.

Apps scale ‘infinitely’ when users are only reading data, so 25k concert goers reading schedules will be fine.
