Do you offer any plans above 10K users? We have 600K members (not all will be nodebb users) and want to see if you offer something for premium hosting. Also, I'm assuming the hosting is done through rackspace or aws?

Edit: I'd only be worried about creating that many categories per day (followed by deleting them, I'd imagine?). It could fill up a Redis database, since it's all memory-backed. Something disk-based would alleviate this easily.

Yes... this is what I was thinking as well. Was thinking of moving to mongo.

Would love to help with a write-enabled API if you get the gears in motion.

Thanks @julian! Do you see any scalability issues? I'm assuming we should use mongo instead of redis for this type of volume.

Want to run something by you and see if it is currently possible or gauge the loe for a plugin. We build software components for a living via our community. We have two major use cases for nodebb:

• Wide open forum with categories that everyone can post to. Nodebb can handle this now and is #awesome.
• When we spin up a new project to build some "big software stuff" we want to restrict it to a pool of admins so they can discuss pricing, requirements, timelines, etc. We may have 100's of admins in total but we only want some specific admins (the ones that are involved in this project) to have read/write access.

My guess is we could use the current security via groups? However, are there API calls for managing groups, members and categories? We have 600K+ members and would be creating 5-25 new categories per day with (in theory) a different group of members for each category.

Thanks!

@julian @MatthewHawley Not sure if you got this working or not but you need to specify the application you are adding the addon to:

heroku addons:add redistogo:nano -a myapp

You can also login into the heroku control panel, choose the "Resources" section of your app, click the "Get Add-ons" link and add it there. Terminal is much easier though.
