> 1) Is it possible to realize my idea with Django, managing the traffic load for 2.000+ user?
The precise question you asked is answered by the Django BDFL, right there on Stackoverflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/886221/does-django-scale/1739974#1739974 In summary, "Yes, it is possible to build a site like stackoverflow using django, that caters to over 100k users per day." But as Russ rightly pointed out, For that scalability, **You should** build it that way. >2) How long *may* it take to realize the following? I know that's a very risky relative question, but assuming I'm a regular-skilled programmer willing to spend +5h a day.
