[Freeswitch-users] Freeswitch with Presence, and databases

[Michael Jerris]

The best answer is for you to test with expected load and see what you get.  In my experience the main issue with presence seems to be disk IO contention on the db.  If you have appropriate disks for your db, it will probably be fine, but test to be sure.

I am also using the  limit function using ODBC backend. Currently we have 300 extensions, but I would like to be prepared for an expansion (over 1,000), Hence, I have a few questions:
