I am evaluating grandnode for a site that will receive high load (5000 concurrent users) for short periods of time.

Anyone have any recommendations for a deployment strategy that will work well with grandnode?  Ideally, I want to use Azure.

I think Linux is a better option for Mongo.  Just wondering if throwing the app and database in one container will scale well enough for that load.

Hello Gus,

For sure you should use a more than one server with load balancer (with RedisCache and S3 or Azure CDN for images). We've tested it on AWS and DigitalOcean and it works fine.
We would recommend to host database in the different container. If you host the database and application in one container, it won't scale enough.

Hi Patryk,

I am interested in such a deployment, is there is any document or guide to do this plan

But what plan do you need? Each development is different, without knowing what are your needs, it's impossible to do anything. You can reach us at support@grandnode.com, we can propose you an offer and create such development skeleton for you.
