Modified Prognostication….or, Wow, How Wrong Was I?
Jeff Grosse | June 14, 2007
Back in May, I began keeping track of the daily transactions Salesforce.com is handling. I was curious to see when the next big threshold would be met…100,000,000 transactions per day. I predicted it would be at the end of August. After looking at more data, I’m revising my prediction.
Salesforce.com has been serving up 25% more daily transactions every twenty weeks. At that rate, they’re headed to the 100 Mil mark by the end of June.
Given the trends, June 26 comes to mind as “the” date, but it could come one week later, only thrown off a little because of the US holiday.
Just a note on speed, Over the last 3 billion transactions, Salesforce has delivered them at an average speed of just over a quarter second each. Impressive, I must say.
I won’t dwell on the topic much, but when I saw the usage going up faster than I thought, I figured it would be better to correct myself.
