Whatsapp, really?

  Before FB acquisition: Yes, really, it ran on potato feature phones you've never even heard of. That can only happen if you really bend backwards to make it happen. Massive userbase with very tiny team.

    Okay. Cause it still feels like running on a potato phone on latest iphone :)

  I recommend to read about WhatsApp how they scaled to nearly 1 billion users with only about 50 engineers. Also check how they optimised BE system.
