Re: How to handle large number of users

At this stage I am just trying to study what will be required to get such a big application to work. The reason I was asking this question here was to find out if anyone here has done anything this big and how to go about doing things for such a big job.

The client app will work on mobile phones using WinCE and it is just a small app updating some tables in the database on the server.

I think the system is mission critical as the mobile phone has to be disabled (disable calling and sms) based on certain conditions and if not done the company will loose money. So, if the company thinks they will have millions of user and if they loose 1 dollar on a single mobile they end up loosing millions.
