Complete baseless conclusion in the article and the HN submitter has manipulated title to create false interest. - Indian numbering system: it is not a problem with short range or long range because even if you consider the smallest number 8.64 trillion is huge. - Given the active internet penetration in India (note most Indians don't/still cannot access internet from home) 3L hits per second on one of the internet sites is way high a number. - That leaves us with bots of all the election oriented websites that would have popped up and the election commissions' website failed in configuring for how frequently can bots hit, better couldn't they have exposed feeds or API's for this. Beyond all this is the India journalism which is constantly looking for 'breaking news' or <create> 'controversial news' or anything that can raise eyebrows. So the editor here must have made the mistake of reverse mapping 80.4 million to 2800 without using "avg" in hits/sec and the mistake with extrapolating 3L to 80.4 trillion. Note that the actual headline on the article is appropriate. Server capacity is spoken in number of concurrent hits it can handle at its peak not over a window. Possible that the EC spokes person too did not understand this.
