Hello, the material says:
WhatsApp handles around 10 million connections on a single server
Then, to calculate the number of servers, it’s suggested that we get the number of daily users (2 billion) and divide by this number (10 million connections on a single server) that’s not clear, the unit of time.
Usually, the information about how much a server can handle is given by seconds. Is this assuming that is 10 milion connections per day? Even though, it doesn’t seem correct to present the information in this way. Can anyone give a help?
