Hi everyone,
I’m developing an app using Softr as a front end and Airtable as the data source. The app serves as both a client portal and an internal operations tool, with 3 user groups: clients, employees, and managers.
Here are the key details:
- Two pages are the most block-heavy, with 10+ blocks each.
- I’m optimizing the performance by using tab containers to limit Airtable requests during the initial page load.
- At peak traffic, I expect around 100 concurrent users interacting with the app (creating, updating, and reading records from Airtable).
- Given Airtable’s 5 requests per second limitation, I’m concerned about potential performance bottlenecks or errors.
I don’t mind if there’s some delay when loading pages; my main concern is ensuring the app functions properly during high traffic.
Questions:
- Will the app handle this level of concurrency without running into errors, considering Airtable’s request limits?
- Has anyone built something similar and can share their experience or best practices?
- How can I simulate the performance of the app with 100 concurrent users to better understand its behavior under load?
I’d greatly appreciate your comments and insights!
Thank you!
