Even at 250k transactions per second that's over 20 billion transactions per day which seems unlikely. 1k transactions per second (100 million per day) is proba

Even at 250k transactions per second that's over 20 billion transactions per day which seems unlikely. 1k transactions per second (100 million per day) is probably a closer ballpark figure for a company like Uber, given they only have around 3 million drivers worldwide. The problem definitely would scale vertically however it does depends on how they interact with the API of their payment processor.
- AznHisoka 9y agoMaybe I am underestimating Uber, but when I think of enormous scale, in terms of number of transaction per day, I think Amazon, or Mastercard. Uber? The upper bound of transactions is restricted to the total number of cab rides a day. That number isnt in the billions is it?
