we are running a big entertainment site - www.netbabyworld.com it used to be a windows + sql solution but we switched to linux and webware when releasing the new version of the site. there are still lot's of features on the site that we haven't had the time to implement, hold tight. there are for an example a quite advanced hi-score system etc.
reason for switching was mainly to have a platform that is fun to work with, enables rapid development and that doesn't limit you. to bad thought we decided to out source the database rig + database front end. this one has been a bottleneck in our system so if you got some problems with the site it's probably the db-front... however, we are working on a solution. currently it's a xml-rpc solution that we talk with via a python xml connection pool. we plan to replace the database front + database with zodb and perhaps a combo with postgresql or mysql. netbabyworld got aproxx 500.000 registered users daily unique sessions 12-20.000 system setup: - load balancer from cisco - 2 linux machines with the website - 1 database & db-front machine + some custom game related relay servers etc. We use apache to serve all the media files such as images, shockwave games and downloads. all the pages is run through webware. feel free to ask for any details. - we like webware a lot, great stuff! /david eriksson + nbw team ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Webware-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/webware-devel
