When building any critical application, "scalability" and "high availability" (HA) are often top of mind. But for many, these terms conjure images of complex, multi-node clusters, expensive infrastructure, and a steep learning curve. The truth is, for most plugNmeet users, achieving both performance and resilience can be much simpler and more cost-effective than you might think.

This article will demystify the relationship between scalability and HA, and guide you through a pragmatic, phased approach to optimizing your plugNmeet deployment. We'll show you how to leverage the power of your cloud provider for HA, and why separating your recording server is almost always your first and best step towards true scalability.

We get the question all the time: "Can Plug-N-Meet support 3,000 attendees in a single meeting?"

The dream is huge: a massive online conference, a global product launch, or an all-hands meeting for a thousand-person company. The first instinct is to find a tool that can cram everyone into one giant virtual room.

But let me be honest: from years of experience in this industry, that approach is a technical and financial nightmare. It's a recipe for chaos, spiraling infrastructure costs, and a poor user experience.

The good news? There's a much smarter, more professional, and incredibly cost-effective way to do it. And you can do it with Plug-N-Meet.
