Protection against large influx of users?

Hi there!

Our app, Roll For It! uses Playfab and Photon for its turn-based multiplayer. It works super well!!! :D


We are going to do a short promotion at some point in the near future, and give the app away for free.

We would hope that this will create a nice, large surge of users... but were wondering if this could cause bandwidth issues, or anything that might impact performance. Is there anything we should be worried about, or prepare for in advance?

Cheers,
Dan

If the "surge" in question is going to generate more than 100-200K users in a single day, please give us a heads-up well ahead of time, and provide the info on the Title ID. Also, if that is the case, I'd highly recommend getting your title set up in our Professional tier well ahead of time as well. The Pro tier is where you get a Service Level Agreement (SLA) and private support (via tickets/email), in addition to the higher limits - particularly for PlayStream, which you'll need to design an effective LiveOps campaign.
