NAV 2009 SP1 - 3 tier with 2500 concurrent users

psekar

Hi

We are planning to deploy NAV 2009 SP1 in 3 tier architecuture for 2500 concurrent users.

I was told a NAV server can handle maximum of 100 concurrent users.

Can anyone face this issue? How can be handled this installation?

Wow!!! 2500 concurrent users? Thats a lot!
I am interested!
I would try to segment all users into different groups and see what tasks they would perform and then decide how to handle each group.

You just need to have multiple NAV service tiers, then configure the client so each client is connected to a specific service tier.

In our tests, we found significant degradation in service tier performance when 60+ users were using the system.

The greater concern you should be focused on is the way that NAV handles transactions. In a 5.0 environment we tested 1,000 concurrent users - the amount of range locks and blocking that occurred was fairly substantial...

Makes me really wish we could control isolation levels in NAV...
