Optimization to handle several hundres concurrent session

PHP
1

Hi,

I want an article that explains the parameters / specifications / guidelines for handling thousands of concurrent sessions using PHP with MySQL on Apache.

My requirement is to conduct online exam, so this requires optimization at at-least two levels:

  1. The Infrastructure - Dedicated Server(s) with load balancing.
  2. Writing optimized code.

This is a worthwhile read - not specific to PHP though, but will give you a good overview of scaling…
