[TYPO3-english] FE-User Questions

2011-02-15 Thread N3
Hello everyone,

I'm trying to find some information on the front-end users of TYPO3 but
Google won't help. Maybe some of you have experience with the following
questions?

 

1) is there a maximum number of front-end users? I am looking at about
40,000 users. Each user will only log in once.

2) how many users can be online at the same time before the system starts to
get slow? What can I do to improve performance?

3) is it possible log in users via a hash? Or is the only way by
user=xxx&password=xxx ?

 

What I am trying to achieve is to have all those users update their
profiles. Therefore I want to import their data into the fe_user table. I
want the whole thing to be integrated into my TYPO3. If any of you know
about the way to have each user only update their personal data without
using the fe_user table for this (Powermail? How can I insert data into the
form if I only have a hash?) that would be appreciated as well.

 

Any help would be really appreciated, thank you

 

Regards

Jan

No problem for TYPO3 ... if you server can handle it.

You better ask how many requests can be done simultaneously. Keep in mind 
that FE-User related processing can not be cached as it is unique for each 
FE-User.

Honestly, I don't know ... you can expire all passwords and send the update 
password link to each user.
Maybe you have to code this yourself (have a look at other extensions, e.g. 
there is one which logs you in based on you IP).

You will need some kind of form. The data is stored in fe_user table anyway.
You might want to have a look at datamints_feuser.

Yes you can login a user via hash in url but you need to write coder and 
decoder yourself. Remember that it is a bit risky to send even a hash 
via url but it can be done. On my blog is even example code how to log 
in a user when you have the login and password.

Where might the bottleneck be? The database I guess? Will I have to take any
precautions?

So what am I looking at: FE-User calls the site via the link --> is logged
in --> the form gets updated with the related data --> nothing (user fill
out the form) --> Form is submitted an data is written back to DB. That
doesn't seem like to much stress. Lets say 10.000 users update within the
first 24 hours, could that seriously bring any server down?

it heavily depends on the kind of processing your software performs.
Bottlenecks could be the database, the file system, the memory occupation.
Less likely it could be the processor.

Can you assume that those accesses are reasonably distributed in the 24
hours?

BTW

A comprehensive evaluation would require to take into account a lot of
parameters involving many entities (HW, OS, DBRMS, Typo3, Apache)

That said, the most important thing to look at when using Typo3 id if
the pages of the web site you develop can be put in cache by Typo3.
For example there are certain extensions that when their plugin is used
make a typo3 page not be cacheable.

At the T3CAMP Italy held a few months ago in Bologna , I saw a very
interesting presentation made by Mauro Lorenzutti on this matter.
