Hey all! I have 2 quick questions.

1. How does the managed version scale? If I post my SaaS on 3 different social media sites and get hundreds or thousands of signups within just a few minutes could it handle that? I doubt I'd actually reach those numbers but before I get invested I'd like to know that it could hypothetically be handled. 

2. How difficult is it to switch from managed to self-hosted? Is it just a matter of changing connection uri and api key or is there a more complex process I'm not anticipating?

1. The managed with a single core can handle > 100 requests per second. And we auto reply multiple cores with a load balancer if a certain volume is hit. So your scenario should work fine.

2. You would need to migrate the data from our db to yours (we use PostgreSQL), you would need to run an instance of the core yourself, and then change the connectionURI and apiKey. That’s all
