Nothing says you must handle them all at once though. You could queue and handle as your system allows... still reaching a 1 million per hour throughput.

- fourier76 7y agoSure, but just because the average is 278 per second doesn’t mean the events happen at that rate. Bursts are way harder to process, which is much more typical. But someone writes an article like “How We Handle X things every Y”, and inevitably someone does basic division and surmises that it shouldn’t be so hard.
- RhodesianHunter 7y ago> Bursts are way harder to process They aren't though. There are very few use cases that aren't bursty, and a plethora of reliable queueing systems exist.
- gnaritas 7y agoQueues eliminate bursts, bursts are not harder to process unless the response must by synchronous.
