Phone companies and financial institutions don't typically have messages which affect millions of accounts, for a start.
- moe 16y agoActually I have built similar systems, on a smaller scale. Phone companies and financial institutions don't typically have messages which affect millions of accounts, for a start. You're saying that as if it was a relevant metric. It's not. What matters is the number of concurrently online subscribers and the aggregate throughput. Twitter doesn't go and append to 1mio inboxes when akutcher sends a tweet.
