Large scale use of FreeNas

[Chrisakien]

Hello,
I'm new to FreeNas. I would like to know if a FreeNas server can be used as a media server to handle 60,000 users all using XBMC as a client ?
Regards
Chris

And I thought the other guy who wanted 15 streams was crazy.

I assume this is an internet-facing situation, so FreeNAS wouldn't be my first choice. Given appropriate hardware (i.e. everything is in RAM), this may work, with properly configured software in a jail.

Honestly, 60 000 streams probably calls for an extremely custom-built infrastructure, from hardware to software, with very tight integration.

I'm gonna lock this thread. Either you are are crazy, you are trolling, or you don't have a clue what you are getting yourself into. In any case, you need to call iXsystems if this is a real problem. Your scale is far beyond what this forum provides support for, and you need professional support for what you are trying to accomplish.

With that I wish you luck and I am going to lock this thread.

Thanks.
