Hello Experts and Peers,
After a whole lot of search I found Modx, and instanly selected it for my Project. As it was a wide idea, so was looking for similar flexibility, I got it from Modx.
My main concern for now is, as in my project, I would be having millions and billions of entries that would increase every month. So was thinking will this create some problem with regards to stability, functionality, load, or else.
So, I request your open suggestion/tips for this concern.
Additional Informations:
This site will not have any attachment files for any entires/articles, nor images.
Regards.

Millions and billions of what type of entries? That’s a case where you’d want to create a view Resource in MODX and access those from a custom table.

Thanks for instant response Ryan,
First off all, I am totally new to Modx.
I have seen that for every new content, I have to make a new document.
Now, My project is some what like a link directory, but it will not have too much of content though in every individual pages, but some custom field (TV) entries for all the articles too.
Any suggestions.

Do not use TVs for millions or billions (or thousands for that matter) of records. Create a custom database table, and access those through a MODX page that reads/displays/paginates/sorts/filters those custom records.

Ok..
I was also looking to integrate the function of TVExplorer kind of, so, can I do it with some custom method. I mean to say, can I filter my content as per the additional custom resource pulled out of tables..?
Secondly, would you advice me a good read resource, so that I dont end up asking soooo many kiddish queries here...
Regards.
Thanks Bob,
I was just reading the same.
Yes, Currently I have Installed Modx Revolution
I just wanted an advice on one concern...
Will the script and database be stable in future with large number of content and traffic or so...
Regards.
Yes, they should if you build things properly. MODx is based on xPDO, which is very reliable.
Thanks Ryan and Thanks Bob for you kind advice and support. Am working on the same.
