Online CAT 2009: Infrastructure ready?
DNA India Report: #-Link-Snipped-#
About 9,350 students were supposed to appear in the test for admission into the diploma and degree programmes in engineering under IGNOU: Indira Gandhi National Open University. The service provider Yahoo couldn't handle the load and the infrastructure crashed.
I'm thinking, the providers for CAT; Prometric folks are now under pressure. Do you think they will be able to handle the CAT load [the number of candidates appearing for CAT is HUGE!]?
Your take?

Gurjeet Singhya biggie i have also got the news that approx 9000 students appeared and ..yahoo couldn't handle the load ,so what about the CAT exam where lakhs of students will appear.and is there any idea which company is undertaking the controls of online exam. -
Saandeep SreerambatlaThe number of students appearing for CAT is around 3L.
But The exam is scheduled for a week days time I think with 2 slots for the exam.
But this is also approximately around 22K people write exam in every slot its a challenge.
Hope it goes smoothly 😀
