I am currently developing an application that creates an instance of a Word document usign Automation. My question is this... What are the upper limits of the number of instances i can create before the server begins to beg for mercy. I now it is dependent on the server's configuration ( i.e. memory) The applicaiton has 1500 users and they all could potentially hit the app at the same time.
Help! I can't find any specs anywhere.
Thanks

Well,you are right:It primarily depends on memory.
However if there are so many user accessing the App at one time then u r better off using dynamic load balancing
Hope it helps...
What exactly is dynamic load balancing? Where can i find more info on it? Is it a server configuration or a programming modofication?
Thanks
Well its sort of both.
In DLB, you set up "Mirror Servers":these are machines which host objects that your application requires ti run.When one machines runs out of memory(or space to entertain more users,to put it in a layman's lingo) all further requests are re-routed to other machines.You can implement it if you have some experience of DCOM installatin and MTS. I suggest that u go through MSDN first and then decide whether you need it or not
Hope this helps...
