Hello all, Can any body tell me do you GS CMS use mysql database or it not use any database, if it doesn't use where is the data stored?

Haven't gotten it up to the thousands pf pages, but am pushing almost 200 without a burp!

Are there any sites in the world that have 1000 pages and 10.000.000 plus simultaneous visitors?  google.com I suppose.

Are you the head of web development for google, and thinking of moving the whole thing onto GetSimple? I know I speak for the whole team when I say that we would be very keen to help and that our lawyers are on call all weekend ready to negotiate a contract.

Just for my own curiosity, what is the "max" amount of visitors and pages that GetSimple could handle?

[shawn_a]

I am fairly certain a static html site can't handle that amount without clustering and an accererator, not a very realistic question.

[Oleg06]

on one of my websites page 31 and up to 5,000 visitors per day
at another site more than 500 pages, up to 50 visitors per day

[vallhund]

Not sure, but server's parameters are vital when talking about how much GetSimple can handle.

*offtop mode
A lot of people use complex database-driven CMS's even when a static html version would be enough!

Thousands of 5-page W*rdPress websites make me sad.(excuse my french)
In my opinion, a database-CMS is only needed for data-driven cases, e.g. e-commerce or social interaction.

It's such a shame that people choose what's popular, not what's most appropriate
