Slide usage questions
Hi all,
We're looking to use slide for a key project and if you have a few moments I would like to ask a couple of questions:
o In your experience (internal to your company or external) what are the largest number to concurrent user using Slide?
o Similarly, what are the largest collections (number of objects or documents etc) that are managed by slide?
o How responsive is end user performance?
o What is the up/down time (works fine with no problems 24 x 7, goes down once a week etc) for the product and how easy or hard is it to maintenance?
o What are some of the workflow options?
o What environments have you seen slide running in (like WebSphere with db2, TX & file system for storage)
Thanks & Regards

This is nice to know. Thanks Oliver.
However, are there any actual numbers or data in terms of usage? Forgive me for asking, but what number (for collections and users) constitutes "large" vs. "low" to "medium" load and concurrency - also is there an average file size associated with this number?

More generally I can say that in Slide 2.1 there are restrictions
concerning the number of concurrent users and the practical size of
collections. Both restrictions have been addressed in the latest Slide
code that eventually will become 2.2.
In detail 2.2 will have much more fain grained locks which will add to
the multi user scalability. Additionally, larger collections will be
practical at least with certain backend stores.
However, very large collections are discouraged anyway when accessing
data over WebDAV as encoding and decoding from/to XML of collection
member information really will eat up quite some time. AFAIK there is
no way to retrieve only a number of children of a collection with an
ordinary PROPFIND, is there?
Bottom line: I *personally* would recommend Slide 2.1 for low to
medium load and concurrency scenarios only.
