PointClick Technologies CEO to be Guest Speaker at DNNCon 2014

Session Topic to Address the Challenges Of Scaling Up to 50,000 Concurrent Users

RALEIGH, N.C., Nov. 6, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — PointClick Technologies, a full-service managed hosting company providing cloud and dedicated hosting to clients throughout the U.S. and Canada, today announced that company President and CEO Malik Khan will be a featured guest speaker at the upcoming 2014 DNNCon, scheduled for November 7th and 8th in West Palm Beach, Florida.

PointClick is a recognized expert in DNN and numerous other CMS applications, providing clients with much-needed, reliable CMS support. "I'm very much looking forward to the opportunity to address some of the issues facing DNN users as their businesses grow," said Malik Khan.

Topics planned for discussion include:

  • How to scale-up a DNN Web site to accommodate 10,000+ concurrent users
  • Troubleshooting and diagnostic tools for IIS and SQL servers
  • IIS Configurations
  • Sizing front-end and SQL servers
  • Correctly configuring load balancers

The DNNCon presentation from Khan comes after PointClick accomplished an extremely challenging scale-up task for Budget Challenge and H&R Block earlier this year.

Mitchel Sellers, CEO of IowaComputerGurus will be joining Malik Khan on the podium and co-presenting from the perspective of a DNN application developer. The partnership with the Iowa-based computer consulting firm proved invaluable as they worked together to scale up the DNN platform to accommodate 50,000 concurrent users.

The DNN expertise of the staff at PointClick continues to expand, which is evidenced by DNNCon's invitation to include CEO Malik Khan as a guest speaker at their upcoming conference.  As Mr. Khan says: "There is no doubt about power and capabilities of DNN to handle even the heaviest traffic loads, but only if they're configured properly. Our approach allows us to address performance issues by seeking answers where many other hosting providers may not look."

About DNNCon: DNNCon is an annual event organized by the DNN user community. The conference offers training sessions on how to optimize the DNN platform, as well as security, administration, marketing tips and advanced techniques. The event is intended to assist virtually anyone within the business community who works with the DNN platform: designers, developers, business owners, marketers and system implementers.
